I haven't been following these developments as close as other people. It took me a year of early morning (sometimes I started at 2am to have uninterrupted time) typing and thinking (the most difficult endeavour) to come up with my algorithm to compensate the geometry on the cinci 5 axis. Was it worth it - you bet. Will I share it? You-bet. Has anyone wanted it? Not that I know of. The only critique from any of the developers was 'OMG what an inscrutable mess'. Heh - and I could not get any 'developers' interested in doing this for me. It was fun. I learned a lot. It is working for me every day.
At least 5 years ago I expressed the desire for an EMC (Everything Machine/Process Controller). HEY - patience pays off. I will use both projects as much as possible. just sayin Stuart -- Addressee is the intended audience. If you are not the addressee then my consent is not given for you to read this email furthermore it is my wish you would close this without saving or reading, and cease and desist from saving or opening my private correspondence. Thank you for honoring my wish. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
