    Rotation or Mirror?

    (Title says one, post says another)

    Mirrored is simpler (Grbl Settings tab > $3 Direction Invert > Flip switch for offending axis

    Rotation could be both X and Y need Direction Invert,( or you wired X to Y)

    Test by jogging. Jog X+ > did toolhead move right? If not. Correct $3 in Grbl Settings
    Same for Y etc

    It's not that, when I jog + the axes go to + and the right

    Is it possible that it is due to the direction of extrusion when I create my part with solidworks?

    Still looks like Y axis is inverted.

    Because it hasn't been set up correctly??

    Does the spindle move away from the front of the machine when you jog Y+?

    If not, the Y axis is reversed.

    Corrected by setting the direction invert mask in the GRBL settings ($3 as Peter posted above) - Go to the 'Grbl Settings' tab in Control and the settings for each axis are there alongside the $3 key.

    Restart Grbl after making any changes, just to be sure.

    Then refer earlier advice:

    Flip the offending axis (looks like its flipped on Y)



    So, what about jogging Y? Does Y+ move the Toolhead to the Rear of the stock? (If not, invert)

    jog X+ must move the tool right relative to the work
    jog Y+ must move tool away relative to the work
    jog Z+ must move tool up away from work

    yes, it is possibly you did something 'interesting' in solidworks, check the setup origin
