Robert, I don't know whether this is a request for clarification, a bug report, or possibly an useful new feature. I want to mill metal (tool steel, and...
While I really like meshcam, I would really like to see an extra sort of pass. How difficult is it to implement some sort of pencil trace. After fine milling...
The finish algorithm is designed to be completed in one pass. It makes the assumption that all of the remaining stock can be machined at the given feedrate...
Robert, If there was an option for a second roughing pass with a new tool (ie. the finishing tool) continuing from where the first had cut it might just do the...
A trick I came up with a while ago is to specify a larger cutter in MeshCAM than the one that is actually in the toolholder. Last time I used the trick was on...

Robert, I finally got my new PC. Dual core Athlon, 2 gigs ram. After creating the toolpaths, when the "Accept Toolpath" dialog comes up, I noticed that CPU...
What are the thoughts of having a function like this added? I've seen it do a great job on parts created in Mastercam. The cool part is that this feature...
Thanks for the reply Randy. I see the example you sent, That really wasn't what I was talking about. I probably explained it wrong. (I'm good at that) I'll...

Yes, the group is still alive but very quiet lately. Slicing will be put back in but in a more complete way. The code added to automate 2-side machinine will...

Hello Robert, I saw on the website that you are working on the UI for a 4th axis option. Any more data on this new functionality? I use Meshcam all the time...
you'd also get a vote of support from me. I just bought my 4rth ... haven't even installed it on my Maxnc, but i was as well looking forward to that...
I cringe every time I get a 4th axis request because I've been so delinquent in finishing it. As I mentioned in the development log and in a post yesterday...
