Prevent computer sleep while carving

Mac book will go to sleep if power scheme allows it even while carving.

Could something be added to Easel Local to prevent this?

Cheers

You should get the Caffeine app from the Mac App Store. It’s free and works well. Just remember to turn it off when you finish cutting!

I think you might also be able to use the command line utility on your Mac to enter “caffeinate” or something, and achieve the same effect, but I’ve never tried it.

or the app jiggler it was always good for me it just makes the mouse jiggle so it prevents it from sleeping or screensaver to happen.

I might need to look into something like this, just had a job stop at 60% because my MacBook went to sleep. Couldn’t start over since my homing switches are smashed to I could find the same home position, sad day :frowning:
