Square-Circle Test: Creates a 4in square folled by a 4in circle inside of the square. This is the code that we use to calibrate the machines.

Tool Sensor Test: This code will loop through tools 1-4 to prove that the tool sensor is working. This calls the tool, measures the length, drives it to zero, then pauses for 3 seconds before calling the next tool.

Counter-bored Hole Pattern: This code will create a pattern of counterbored holes in your spoilboard using an 1/8" end mill. This program demonstrates nested loops.
