Yes, SheetCam can do tangential control. The tricky bit will be the
mechanical design. You need to make sure the point where the jet
contacts the work does not move at all as you rotate it. Can you get a
joint that will withstand the pressure and allow rotation?

Ok, that is great, but that software still costs money (at least 110
GBP, which is something like probably 140 EUR or 180 USD, which is
almost 20 times less than other CAM software for waterjet that i have
found). I would like to

I work with a manufacturer that runs a large waterjet system 1-2 shifts
per day at least 5 days per week.
Their biggest costs related to the waterjet are water and electricity.

Mark,
You might check into "Kiosk" mode which works with KDE (Kubuntu) at least
through version 8.04. I have not used it, but with a quick search it looks
like it may still only be available under KDE3, but not yet available under
KDE4, which may be an issue after the next LTS release (10.4).

Yes, it isn't practical to filter and treat the water so it can be run
back through the pump.. the material being cut is somewhat acidic, so
there is a chemical problem and a dust/dirt grit issue with the waste water.
Some of the grit and dust is separated before the water is sent to the
sewer

I just noticed something interesting. A lot of the times I use the keys x,y,z,a
to select which axis I want to setup, but I also have a tendency to go in to
gedit and change code when I need to. I usually set the caps lock on when I'm
writing the code as well. However I noticed when I went back
You can lock a user out of everything pretty easy with IceWM and its
easy text files for menus.
Just make sure there is no shell the user can start and make sure
user can't login from the console either to edit the IceWM config.
I used to use it in a computer lab to give the users very limited

Hey,
I have just gotten a spindle encoder working on a Bridgeport 1J (step
pulley) head. There's no sane way to couple to the spindle, the only
way is to install gear tooth sensors that read the teeth of the bull
gear. I am going to write up a web page on it in the next couple days.
I just g

Good job. I'm looking forward to your write up. Is there an index on
your spindle encoder?
