New Version 2.255

Art sorry me jumping the gun a bit
There are two posts mixed up here.
One is the machine dials in 4th axis and the other is the clock faces in CAD in 2.5D with radial text.

Machines dials are the ones I mentioned first then got carried away.

I'm sure that when I die, if I get reincarnated as a vulture I will be the first of the species to go out and actually kill something.................

John:

  Even for machine dials though, wouldnt 2.5D work just as well as 4th?

No need the 4th.
Picture should explain it all.



At the moment this is about the best the manual way produces.



Think you will agree, no contest.

Hi All:

  2.556 is online, it corrects a few small bugs, and add time of job to the 4th axis screen so you can guage
how much time your adding to a job by various methods..

  ( This, of course, is an educated guess, I have no idea as to your accel and rapid rates.. ( though I do know your
feedrates.. So I take the best guess I can. )

  Ahhh, I see what you mean.. I hadnt considered that..

Good idea though, Ill look into it..

My computer graphics are too fast for your simulation at the slowest speed. Any chance of going slower yet?
Very good looking tool path, tho I haven't cut a gear yet.

Best regards,
