Thanks for checking my problems: I open the Rhino sample, select mm, Geometry/scale= 25.4, View/fit window, Tools/generate tool path. Most of the dimensions...
Different units can coexist in MeshCAM- just enter "3mm" for instance in the toolpath stepover and it will change it to that. Everything will be converted...
Thanks Robert, It is a nice feature that it will accept both units. That might be useful in the USA but hopefully the remaining few inch fields will also be ...
Still brings a smile, remembering my seventh grade math teacher, "Pop" Shearman. He explained how an acre is the amount of land a man and a horse can plow in a...
The license information, both the name and code, must be taken exactly from the email you got from the server. People commonly make the mistake of putting a...
I'm test marketing polymer, stepped ring mandrels in either whole or half sizes. If any of you mill wax rings, these might be useful for you. I have a batch...

I am New to this group and Meshcam So Hello all. (Questions below refer to latest build) I am having a little difficulty placing bridges where i want them on ...
Right now you can only put the bridges in the areas you mentioned. I'll be making that more flexible in the near future. Also, you can undo the last bridge...
Thanks for that, Just a thought,(lots of time available while watching the machine) when you do look at bridges again, would it be possible to design in keep...
Hi I’m new to MeshCam and CNC work in general so apologies for any dumb questions. I’m currently trying to do a two side rout when I used the parallel cut...
What step is it waiting on- creating the toolpath or offsetting the model? Also, the stepping can be reduced using the oversampling option. The higher you make...
The new web page indicates that MeshCAM Art is built on and includes the functionality of regular MeshCAM. The purchase page lists each product individually,...
I haven't gotten around to an upgrade pager yet- I guess I need to. I was thinking that a $250 upgrade price for people who bought before May 20th would be...
Hi, I have a couple of 4th axis questions - I have a synchronous, toothed timing pulley that I'd like to cut side-on in one piece, so that the flanges are part...
Another option is to 'un-roll' your timing pulley and mill as a flat with a rotary axis swap for Y. You have to get the rotary axis numbers just right to avoid...
Thanks, I might give that a go. Right now, I seem to have a problem with the STL model in MeshCAM r5946 - I get a diaglog box pop up with an error message: ...
Jeff, wouldn't un-rolling a gear or timing pulley distort the tooth shape? Don ... flat with a ... just right ... this ... of ... would ... pattern ( in ... my...
Don, Yes. The amount of distortion depends on the difference between min and max diameters of the teeth, flanges don't really matter provided that you adjust...
Jeff, that is what I was thinking. The problem with the timing pulley/belts is that they are a bit like an involute gear tooth. The spacing and depth is in...
I don't know if this has any thing to do with the price of eggs, but take a look at the Sheetcam.Com site. Les has a warning about a receient Windows update...
Don, I haven't cut anything using the indexed 4 axis feature but did spend some time playing with multiple indexes... 7 I believe. It sure looked like it would...
Hi Folks, I am a fresh start to MeshCAM so would appreciate a bit of guidance. I have a Denford Easimill converted to run Mach3 and have been programming...
Hi Ian I'll try to answer your questions but the reason for my replying will soon become more obvious. I'm not sure of the world or machine coordinate systems...
Well, my mill's motor died a week ago, so I haven't had a try at this yet, but having just put MeshCAM's output into CNC Simulator, it would seem that it would...
