i want to assign it to a button....
i want to add "one button" cutting to an extra screen in mach..(preferably with large buttons and pictures) this "hole" is part of every single 3sided cut I do (amongst other repetitive tasks).. i am also going to be installing these mills for fellow jewellers who will be using milling wizards to generate paths and whom could care less about what makes it work and more about just getting the part out... so i need to simplify the process significantly to be able to sell more of these units....
my competition is printers... load model.. hit print....
compared to milling... load model.. figure out what the mill cannot access.. write path, simulate, pull hair out, start again. add plugs, flip model etc etc etc so i need to find "one button" solutions as far as i can.
1: load model in cam, insert hub, hit "flip cut" cam generation button (i believe artcam allready has onebutton pathing for this)
2: load path in mach, hit cycle start
3: hit [cut hub]
4: flip wax onto 4th option, load path
5: hit cycle start
6: drink beer
thats how my customers would prefer it.. while I like getting into the nitty gritty most my customers wont.
