I did a really quick hack to export the feed movement to a script and could create a 3D representation of the cut result (is is an example file taken from gcmc). The scad-file and c-source used to create the scad file are attached too. The first few tries caused openscad to crash, which I could trace to some errors of mine. However, I do think that there are some bugs in openscad that will cause larger files to exhibit serious problems. There are some optimizations that could be considered. Currently, I just use any feed movement and create a "hull" of the start- to end-position. That is inefficient if some paths could be reused. Also, it is not clear whether calculation of sums and differences can be sped up by reordering them in a better way. -- Greetings Bertho (disclaimers are disclaimed)
