Last night I started production of some local town signs. I played with programming shopbot files using the
JZ, 1.000
M2, 0.000, 0,0000
FP, abc.sbf,,,,,2
JZ, 1.000
M2, 25.000, 0,0000
FP, abc.sbf,,,,,2
Once you remove the spindle start and stop information from the base file and add that to this auto file, it works like a champ.
Additionally, I program in each step like"
' V90 1.25 tool?
PAUSE
TR,12000
' Turn on dust collection
PAUSE
' Is the table clear?
PAUSE
'
'Turning router ON
SO,1,1
PAUSE,2
'
MS,1.7,0.5
====
SO if you are making the same product at different locations on your bed, try it out!... works GREAT!

Except the .sbf should be .sbp
Good job on the programming though.

Hey Bob,
Cutting in offset mode is pretty slick, isn't it! The programming capabilities of the ShopBot language open up a lot of new possibilities.
For those of you that haven't played with offset mode yet, there's an article on the ShopBot website on it that might help.

Almost like programming a subroutine in formal languages.

Proof reading algorithms makes my head hurt.
10 PRINT "MY HEADHURTS"
20 GOTO 10
10 print "my headhurts";
20 goto 10
Run
My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts My headhurts my headhurts

Danny, there seems to be a problem with your code. There is this errant capital "M" running rampant.

For the first time in years I needed to do this for a file and like Bob I edited out much of the general command code. Worked like a charm. The object was a whole stack of these rosettes in 1/4" Ash which was contact cemented to a piece of plywood so afterwards the web could be removed and the parts sanded while on the plywood. Fortunately the client got to do the sanding!!
