Would be nice to change speed during a job.

Adjusting feed rate on the fly is pretty difficult. But, adjusting spindle speed is not too difficult. What would you think of being able to adjust spindle speed but not feed rate as an interim feature?

Hmm Spindle speed is not a problem now because I still have to use a separate powersupply for the PWM for my spindle. Still didn't get the PCB we spoke about from China.

But yes this would be already a step in the right direction

Thanks for the input. Maybe we can get the ability to adjust spindle speed on the fly added soon.

I would be more interested on having more control over the feed rate on the fly. Is there anything in the works toward this?

Changing the feed rate during a run would be a great addition.

Is the inability to adjust feedrate on the fly a hardware challenge or software? Would it be possible to make it happen by using GSender or some other gcode sender? I haven't had my Onefinity Journeyman long, but I already miss that functionality!! Thank you.

It is a soft issue. It is not feasible to integrate GSender.
