Title: Mach-3 and L-cam for the lathe
Post by: DennisF on September 18, 2007, 01:11:13 PM: Hi Brian and Art
I haven't checked back for a few month's and was wondering if you guy's got around to working on the lathe part of the program yet.

Just wondering, will the Lcam for lathe replace the wizards already there, or will it be a DXF input type addition to the wizards? As I have never used Lcam, is it integral with Mach, or a stand alone program?

I orignaly purchased Mach for the lathe application but also understand that thing's happen and it always take's longer then you expect.

I hope the work slows down and I can get back at Lcam hard! I would like to have it doen for the most part... I have about 2 weeks work to finishe what I need to work on in Lcam.
