The poorly named 'polygon.comp' generates polygons and D shapes by giving it a few parameters. The comp takes into account the tool diameter so it creates the correct shape.
I also added the functionality to 'scan' in a shape to the comp. It is probably the easiest to explain in a video.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4sKHBh6rDk Currently I use motion i/o to send the parameters from g-code. But there is always a plan for a re-map. sam On Sun, Mar 12, 2023 at 12:36 PM John Dammeyer <jo...@autoartisans.com> wrote: > Love it. Nicely done. > > How did you do the cad part.
