Title: Lathe wizards collection
Post by: amarillis on September 07, 2010, 10:04:30 AM

I'm sorry if this is not the right place to post this topic.

I'm looking for a "collection" of lathe wizards something that can expand the default wizards library.
I did already get the "Turning extra", but is there anything tha can create a shape like a JAR?

Thanks everybody.
Alberto

The Newfangled wizards do not include lathe.  You might try on one of the othesections of this forum, or on cnczone.

I have been working on some turn wizards, but summer has slowed my progress. I dont think they would do a jar shape however.

I am not aware of any wizards out there for doing a profile. In fact, there is not much at all for free reguarding the lathe
other than LazyTurn that are worth anything. LazyCam requires  the pro license for the lathe module. After those you need to spend
money for lathe cam programs which are not cheap.

LOL,
