Helping a friend try to get his LinuxCNC box up and running and we've
been playing around with extra software. I've gone in through the
Synaptic Package Manager on my machine at work (Ubuntu 11.10) and have
Visolate up and running fine. Unforch, on 10.04 LTS, Visolate is not
available as a pa

You could try my github fork of pcb2gcode [1]. It has pathoptimization,
and simplification. There is an additional shell script, to call eagle,

There were an older thread about visolate not running from gene (middle
of january). The problem was that visolate couldn't find the java3
super glue, hot glue, elmers glue, polyvinyl acetate, epoxy, melted nylon

Thanks Dave for your thoughts.
The MTBF-factor is of course a hard caught animal, I guess I have at
least two objectives with a project like this:
1) Try to make it run by repairing it or work around it's faults.
2) Treat it as an self educational exercise aiming at more modern
machines and co

I have a pretty good pile of them myself! When I first started messing
around with my lathe I had to have right where I could read it and do it
step by step that was about the only way I would have a chance do it right,
but once you get used to it, it is pretty simple

I kinda like the highlighting that gEdit does with C and config files
and I wanted to reproduce that with code I put in webpages. After a
little bit of searching and looking in Synaptic, I installed the
python-pygments package:

and gave it a try:

possible, right?
Well.. if you can get it to run and do what you want to do with the
existing controls, that is fine. But if I were you I would use that
opportunity to understand how the turret works, electrically and
mechanically
