...that there is no RPM setting in the tool definition. Welllll, I didn't really just notice, but I thought I'd mention it before your next development...
Robert: Thanks for the heads up. I have a 4th axis ready and waiting. If your user interface is anything like Meshcam3d then I would say you have or will have...
As far as MeshCAM is concerned, there is no reason to use DXF files if you can use STL. DXF takes much longer to load and is much more likely to give you...
The tool definitions need a general update anyway- I still need to add the ability to define a name for them like you asked for a while ago. -Robert...
That'll eventually be put back in but nobody has asked for a while. I took the feature out when I changed the code that defines a job type since the slicing...
My initial thought was that the max depth would often be defined by the limits of the machine or the tool so I made it move with the program zero. The more...
While you are working on the arrows could you label them? A X, Y, and Z floating next to the arrow would help me, someone who is only an occasional MeshCam...
I can't recall ever having the max depth any deeper than the geometry. Having it default to the machine limits is just asking for holes in the table. And...
Thanks Robert, I guess I won't waste a bunch of time experimenting. Like they say "If it ain't broke - Don't fix it!" BJ ... files if ... likely ... support ...
I haven't used the slice mode in a while but I do use it on occasion and it does come in very handy when I need to use it. I would definately like to see it in...
After you run the toolpath, disable to toolpaths in the 3d view and enable the zmap. Check if the problem is in the ZMap. This will help determine if the...
I've been working on bigger projects for a while now and the bug list has been paid less attention than I'd like. I spent today working down a list of problems...
Robert, I normally use both X & Y offsets of 2mm to clear a 1.6mm roughing bit, and enough Z offset to clear out of tram mill, with centre the model checked....
Jeff, what I would typically do is specify the stock X, Y and Z sizes I wanted with "center model" checked, then uncheck center model and input my desired Z...
Randy, Exactly how I do it now. I just thought that it required more user 'caution' than Robert normally expected. I really appreciate his concern about...
Yes, I'm using the sliced mode, its not perfect but very useful. The way to avoid machining the top of the slice would be a great improvement. BTW in 2-sided...
... I did so, and the problem appears to be in the toolpath code. I've uploaded a series of screenshots to the "Oversampling problem files" folder in the...
... OK, Jeff, sorry. I didn't quite follow your explanation. Look in the pictures folder "Randy G-G" Is that what you're talking about? The ability to...
... Actually, I dummied that up wrong. When "center" is checked for an axis, the input box would show the resultant offset for that axis (as it does now for...
Randy, Your (corrected) mock up would do the trick. Centering X and Y to provide clearance around the part, and using the Z offset and stock thickness to place...
Please to inform if the package Mesh cam can create but types of tools. __________________________________________________ Correo Yahoo! Espacio para todos tus...
I just uploaded build 5420 to http://www.grzsoftware.com/v2dl.php . It includes preliminary 4 axis support but only the Mach2-Inch post has been modified to...
