Well, I can't imagine using G71 if you did have CAM software. (Fusion360 is partly why I lost the incentive to convert my G71 remap to native code) But a chamfer is easy to hand-code, and R-format arcs are simple too. I think that the objection to R-format falls down in lathe code where they are typically exactly 90 degrees. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
