Fix ShopBot Postprocessor

[dennismccloud]

I'm a new user who downloaded Fusion 360 for the Mac last week. There appears to be a problem with the Fusion 360 ShopBot post processor not including the spindle start command. After spending an hour trying to get my first job to run without success, an expert on Fusion 360 and ShopBot provided me with the following fix:

‘ Added ,1 to end of TR 

TR,10500,1

' Commands to add to start spondle

SO,1,1

PAUSE 2

' End Added Lines

The standard output from the ShopBot OpenSBP postprocessor does not include the required "SO,1,1" Spindle On command. This requires any ShopBot user to research and add the commands to every postprocessor output file prior to running. Now that I know the command to add, it is not a lot of work but fixing the postprocessor will prevent frustration for future users.

BTW:  The shopbot  start/stop spindle commands are generated by postprocessors from other vendors.

Thanks! I kludged my way through this at TechShop the other night as well and just copied the start of a working program to get it working, not really knowing what exactly was amis.

Instead of "TR, 15000", I replaced with 

TR, 15000

SC, 1, 1

TR, 15000

C6

Not really sure what SC (smooth cut) has to do with this, but that worked as well.

Totally agree with the poster.  This is super tedious and would be really easy to fix!
