CAM turning tailstock interference detection
When using a tailstock center (live center, dead center, whatever), it would be nice to be able to set up interference detection to avoid crashing.
It would be very handy to have to same type of inertia like a preview on Mac has. The quicker you move the faster the scroll is.
Thanks to everyone for their suggestions!
