You are right, the routines are basically decrementing / incrementing loops cutting the profile down to finished dimensions. There is no gouging calculation, the profiles that can be cut are limited by tool type, profile and mounting, and ultimately operator common sense. The work very well for me within those limitations but can certainly be improved upon. I look forward to your results. regards ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
