About the 4-axis thing. I don't know how your n-sided code works, but couldn't you just insert a rotational move to position the stock before you did each...
I was wondering what size image did you start with when you took the picture of the cat? Thanks, Paul. ... turned ... it. ... others ... of ... cat). ... I'm...
It was an old image from a 640x480 camera that I had cropped a little bit. The one in the photos section is what I started the whole process with. -Robert...
Hello Robert, Thanks for the reply. I was using the slider for the export aspect of the STL file and that did a pretty good job. I was looking for a little...
That was actually what I was trying to describe below. I think that for some geometries it could end up being better and, as you mention, is not a huge leap...
Robert that is basically how I am currently doing it but with the cam system I have I have to make a seperate drawing with toolpath for each side, edit in the...
Hello All, I have a piece I created in Rhino3D. I noticed the other day while cutting the rough cut pass (stepover set to .0625) everything worked out just...
Hello All, I have a piece I created in Rhino3D. I noticed the other day while cutting the rough cut pass (stepover set to .0625) everything worked out just...
The roughing stepover doesn't have to be the same as the finish pass, but it should always be greater than the finish pass. There is no code to verify that...
Robert, That result from the photo is great :-). I am looking forward to reading the tutorial once it is ready. By the way, I didn't see what tool you used to...
Not sure why I never thought of this before, but why don't you put the retract height in the toolpath dialog? It will save everybody one extra step. Are you...
Sorry for duplicating this post, but it didn't get added to the message list yet so I'll try again. I finally got everything worked out and RC1 is now...
... Well done, Robert. Congrats on RC1 (which I've downloaded and will try this weekend). I'll create a PostProcessor for the Vision 2424 Router and post it. ...
Hi Robert. I downloaded RC1 and it went very smoothly. I received by activation code within a few minutes. (I did receive the message twice thought). In...
For those of you interested in seeing what I've tried to get MeshCam to do allong with my cating and home foundry indeviours. All the photo in all of the...
Thanks for the proofreading, I've look at it for so long that I have no chance of finding the errors now. I appreciate the Vision post offer; I'll definitely...
Another good catch on the web site, thanks. Gerry mentioned the double email to me and I was just sitting down to look into that. The Yahoo Group price will...
I've been thinging about a "Job Setup" dialog where you select the type of operation you want, standard 3-axis, n-sided, or indexed n-sided. I think this...
Robert, one thing about the new website. At 1280x1024, it's still wider than my screen. Nothing worse than a horizontal scroll bar on a web page. (well, I...
Robert, The new site looks great. I downloaded RC1 and boy is it quick. I did find it could not handle a 72Mb STL file, so I used a 20Mb version of the object...
Thanks for the information on the prices. Let me know when you are ready to receive payment. I will plan on purchasing the package. Thanks again for all of...
I still have to get my LLC papers back to get a tax id number to get a bank account. There is a seemingly endless ammount of paperwork to start even a tiny...
Those pictures are great. I just built a cnc router with a 17"x36" work area and I'm working on a cnc foam cutter at the moment. Last year I built my blast ...
The tool bit I used for the marble was of the diamond varity found at Harbot Freight. There are better ones. The shank on these were very flimsy. Feeds over 3"...
Well, as I downloaded the last beta while the RC1 and new website was being developed, I haven't had much to say about Meshcam up until now. Comments: When...
Overall, I like the program very much. I was able to get 3D G code with minimal effort. Here are a few things that I would like to see. I realize that some ...
Does MeshCam have waterline toolpath generation or am I missing something? Also How does define stock by the slice work. I can easily divide my piece by varing...
