      Hi, I have successfully migrated to RRF3.2.2 and everything works at it should. I really like added features especially the Gamepad jogger plugin. However, the interface still has a lot of 3D printer features remaining e.g. extruders and temperature which are not needed with CNCs. Is it possible to completely remove these in order to get a cleaner look? I think a hybrid of Ooznest's Workbee Control with the added features of DWC-CNC will be the best of both worlds. An XYZ probe macro and power-loss resume button will also be greatly welcome.
      Thanks for your efforts. 👍

        @chimaeragh did you put it in cnc mode...if not will show the 3d printer interface!

          @weed2all Yes I did. It is showing the CNC interface but there are still remnants of 3D printing like extruders, filaments and temperature which are not useful in a CNC environment. If you have used Ooznest's Workbee Control before you will understand what I mean.

            @chimaeragh would you mind sharing some screenshots of the items you are referring to. Just an fyi the main areas of this version are focused on the dashboard and some plugins.

              @Sindarius I was referring to areas other than the dashboard. If this release is mainly about the dashboard then I have no complaints. Thanks

                @chimaeragh at this point the only area addressed outside of plugins is the dashboard. I know areas such as files need to be addressed. However, dashboard functionality was the main initial target.

                    Just following up on this. I've been running my CNC on a Duet3 board for a couple months now and loving it! Thanks to all who put the time and effort into this project!

                        @sindarius - Firstly, what you have produced so far is BRILLIANT!! Well done sir 🙂 I absolutely love it!!

                        Secondly - have you had any time to look into / work on, the idea of a plugin for the XYZ probe used on the Workbee? The DWC used by Ooznest was great for the inclusion of the automated probe setup/use, but the rest of the UI was so heavily "printer based" that I hated it.

                        Your CNC version, is "the dog's wotsits". If "their" probe setup (or similar) could be added to "yours" as a plugin - SO many people would be extremely pleased.

                        Thoughts - for future development ........., your gcode viewer is good. Before having to use/learn Duet, I used Universal Gcode Sender - the feature that I love in that, is seeing the toolpaths, and a representation of the tool tip - in real time as the cut progresses. It certainly gives me reassurance as to what the machine is doing/about to do. So a possible plugin for that would be uber cool!!!!

                        Many thanks - keep up your great work 🙂

                          @hagrid I've made some macros to deal with the xyz probe. Just need to edit for your different tool widths. I mainly use 6mm and 3mm end-mills so this works fine for me at the moment to have 2 macros. If I have an oddball sized bit then it's only 10 seconds to adjust the macro.
                          Admittedly, it would be lovely to have the Workbee style probe as a plugin but for the minute, the benefits of the newer firmware and this DWC outweigh the loss of the probe functions.

                          If you want me to post the macros I can do so tomorrow when I'm in the workshop.

                                        @chimaeragh thanks for posting those. I am just working through the simplest Z-only probe initially (@Kane on the other thread has a version of the macro that is now working for me). Once we have the Z probe working reliably (and I understand the subtleties of why my original macro was incorrect) I will use these to explore the tool diameter measurements.

                                        Cheers

                                            Hi. I just saw that this project has been updated to DWC 3.3 rc1. Glad to know it hasn't been abandoned. I'll be getting a Neje laser module to attach to my CNC soon and will be coming back to RRF3
