Great Work Art
It's exactly what i would expect, it ran as it should waiting for the finished product it looks like it should run ok now.

Hi,
Why does this show a collision on the trailing edge at the arrow ? No clearance like the Pawn ?

Tool collision was not implemented when that demo picture was posted.

The tool should not have cut any of the parts inside the white circles,  the only part of the tool that was being checked was the nose radius, now the whole shape of the tool is taken into account.

Graham,
I just downloaded this version from the site metioned by BEN a few posts back.
Then opened the DXF for the King that I saved early on.

Is there a later version ? If so..where can I get it.
Thanks,
RC

I don't think Art has released the latest version yet.

OH...Sorry for the confusion Graham. By reading DennisF's post, I assumed that the latest release was working to this extent.
Thanks for the clarification.

 Sorry if i made you think it was a finished product i poorly stated a thought, my thought was that from the test version it looked as though the program was ready to go.

No prob Dennis....that's what I get for making assumptions.
I didn't assume it was finished, just thought the collision part was ready to play with.
I guess I'm just a little over enthusiastic about this project.
Thanks,
RC

I see various mentions of cutting chess pieces with LazyTurn how would you do the knight? Is anyone going to be kind enough to post a set of G-codes to make a chess set? I'd like to make a shiny stainless steel set one day for the father in law as he's a keen chess player and would really appreciate a personal set like that's especially on an inlaid chess board. << dreaming of projects to come......
