Thanks Andy. 3D geometry is possible, I just don't know how to put it into C code. I'll have to look at more Kinematic files. On Thu, Jan 8, 2015 at 5:22 AM, andy pugh bodge...@gmail.com wrote: On 8 January 2015 at 02:36, poormansairforce H poormansairfo...@gmail.com wrote: My gift

I did not connect Virtual D1 and D2 since it was getting confusing. Obviously, the virtual position isn't 22.5 degrees. On Tue, Jan 6, 2015 at 10:08 PM, poormansairforce H poormansairfo...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks Andy, thats good to know. I've attached some pics to better explain the errors

is not angled more than a small amount. And as John pointed out as the wire climbs vertically the correction needs to be larger. Let me see what I can draw up. Thanks Dan On Tue, Jan 6, 2015 at 12:08 PM, Andrew pkm...@gmail.com wrote: 2015-01-06 18:52 GMT+02:00 poormansairforce H poormansairfo

Thanks to all who have replied. Apparently I have missed some replies from several people so my apologies if my replies have sounded weird. We are certainly on the same page as to what I want to build. The custom kinematics is bending my brain a bit.Thoughts on where to start? Thanks Dan On Fri,

Hi all I have been trying to join the forum but can't get past the registration page, says there are errors:( I have a question about setting up a bipod hot wire cutter. Simply, in CAD I have figured out that on my dream machine setup, at a 4' 6 cutting length when the wire is angled 22.5 degrees
