n00b question: So, what is the definition of a crash, how do I know when I've had one, and how do I know if anything non-obvious in the machine has been damaged?
To make a long story short: forgot to turn off tool offsets on my 770, and Z plunged a set screw holder straight into a block of aluminum. The force of it all pushed the 1/4" EM most of the way into the holder. I managed to hit the e-stop before the holder made contact with the block though. Even the bit survived, albeit with a long scratch where the set screw was holding it.
Programs that I've run since then appear to be accurate and ok. However for future reference I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions, tips, or other examples of past boo-boo's?
