John,

This video should help you understand constraints (you may not have all the constraints in the video available to you in Atom though)

There's more videos here (Don't worry Alibre was Geomagic before it was re-aquired )

Don't know if they will deal direct, or if there's a minimum order.

I've posted this in another thread, but might still help, with some interesting methods:- **LINK**

A bit more discussion on the MYCNCUK site here:- **LINK**

Not a Coventry but a Landis and a bit on the large size for the OP (I'm sure we had slightly smaller ones at RR though)

Any use? :- **LINK**

If the OP was holding the DTI in the spindle and then rotating the spindle by hand, then the error would be the column, but as he is not and just moving the Y Axis then the error is in the table.

0.010" is nothing to worry about IF you're happy producing wedge, or parallelogram shaped parts. However if you want to produce accurate, square work then it needs correcting (and THEN also check the Column alignment, shimming if needed)
