No, I don't think there are any. I proposed something similar (but it
doesn't have the adding/removing offsets problem) to

I went to a ShopBot event last year and saw where folks did 'turning' using
their indexer.
The process they used was to determine the 'final diameter' and layed out a
rectangle
of 'unwraped' surface (length as the length of the turning, width of the
'final diameter').
Then put whatever they wanted
Thanks Jeff
I'll look into it. Do you know off-hand if there are any current
components that do this?

Heh. An A axis would be too easy :-) TBH I think I may pass on this job.
Too many unknowns. I will check if the cams can be made in pieces. If so
then I could simply mill the lobes.

Personally, I find that true, using direct install on ubuntu rather than the
EMC2 CD.
Actually installing Ubuntu 8.04 LTS from CD, get it talking on your network
but DO NOT
update Ubuntu at this time. Then do the EMC2 install. Afterwards updating
Ubuntu
generates the fewest problems for me.

Having gotten another power supply for my machine, thanks to the advice
found here, my machine is running at about 30 in/min, yay!
Now a new problem has cropped up, my z-axis works fine in setting up the
config, but when running the machine with the config, it will only step

I think that is something I would do with the A axis. I have turned stuff
with it, but haven't tried to make a cam yet. I got stu

Hi Jeff,
I would have replied earlier but I blew up my X11 settings and it took
me this long to get it working again...

Yes. There isn't much choice in this. To even get a simple offset circle
you need to generate lots of short lines.

Chris, thanks or your time on writing, but you shouldn't take so much
time to explain that people is not perfect, and programas can barely be
bug free.
I repeat (again) my problem is not so much with EMC people for making
the effort, but with some of those who only can fill their
mouth(fingers)
Thanks for the great step by step. I've put a link from the wiki to
this post in the mailing list archive.

If the DRO is counting in the right direction but the homing move is
going in the wrong direction, then negate the value of Home Search

Has anyone tried turning a cam on a lathe using EMC? I tried using lots
of G33 moves but they seem to get out of sync. My machine has pretty
high acceleration and top speed but even at very low spindle speeds
(14rpm) it doesn't seem to keep up.
Does EMC have any other way of doing synchronised
