That was not me, believe me I am not even capable of thinking of what I might want to do.
That was Richard!

Hi Ralph,
So you have written the 'clever math' to do this.? Super.? Looking forward to a detailed explanation on how you've done that.

Actually John I think that Ralph was directing the question to John Lindo!
Further to the comment you made that I repeat below, sorry John you are incorrect. I am using the Russian ELS on on Arduino Mega and I have "modified" the software. I have constant area cutting and the operator can pick plunge or flank cutting. After reaching the calculated depth for the Metric or Imperial thread further passes are possible at increments chosen by the operator. I also have the capability of clearing the tool away from the job? in X for testing then subsequently moving it back to the original position if further cuts are needed. As the system is encoder controlled the speed can vary whilst cutting.

Unless the math is really clever on the Arduino based electronic gearing systems they can't do it either.
