Hi, Aclausing

I think the biggest problem your having with your dxf is that you need to draw it in a upper 1/2 a profile view, In the upper left quadrant area of your cad view,  Above Y0 line and to the left side of X0 Line.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, Art

Yes, the posted g-code is off, the view seems correct now, but the rough profile settings are being applied funny in the variables used, I'm Thinking, I now that's a scary thought "Me Thinking",  HU.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Art

Memory leak gone hear also, Thank You for the last Little Bug fixes.

I still have 2 or 3 Little Bug's, That need attending to, I think they will resolve the issues that Dennis is having also at this time, pic's below:

Pic, 1. The Whole Picture and Rough Profile shown are 100 % Correct now, The PST G-code is Good also, In my opinion, Anyway.

Pic, 2. Here's where the problems come in, If you use any value for the Depth Per Pass other than "0.5", The Whole Profile Rough Passes are moved Off the Part Profile by 0.5000 more than it should be even though the Stock Clerance is set to "0".

If Rough Value of 1.0 is set, Right Face cut finishes 0.5000 away from X0.0 Centerline. PST G-code file verifys this, Entire Part Radius is 0.5000 to Big.

If Rough Value of 0.55 is set, Right Face cut finishes 0.5000 away from X0.0 Centerline. PST G-code file verifys this, Entire Part Radius is 0.4500 to Big.

If Rough Value of 0.4 is set, Right Face cut finishes 0.3000 away from X0.0 Centerline. PST G-code file verifys this, Entire Part Radius 1 center major dir is 0.3000 to Big.
Radius 2 small minor dir is 0.1000 to Big.

Got to go to airport, Broken Airplane, darn !!!! hear are 2 pic and dxf, I used ----- finish editing in awhile.

Edit: I'm back, Still adding info hear, Art, The screen view and PST show the Error's, I think the Rough Profile Settings windo Values are being used Improperly somewhere.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Art

Not wanting to argue, But the 0.5 rough looks different to me and the G-code say's it is missing a Left rough pass also.  ???

Even this Cave-Man can See It, Chip  ;D

Edit: Can't find the Pulling my hair out Happy Face.

DXF added bel;ow

Hi, Bob

Q1. Try setting the Debounce value to 2000 in Config, General Configuration page see Pic below.

Q2. The pulley/spindle is just a warning I think, There must be a setting error in spindle pulleys page, haven't worked with it much hear.

Let us now.

LazyCam (Beta) / Re: Lazy Cam vs D2NC

Hi, Stitcher

LazyCam hasen't been worked on in 2.5 Years or so, It was put on hold bigger fires i guess, It was getting really close to bugs being worked out at that time, Hoping it will get past bata version at some point.

Your dxf has some extra stuff in it, Hears a tap file for you, You'll need to edit the Z moves and F speeds though.

Hi, Art

I've been working with Dennis about these issue's and Posted a dxf that isn't so long to show it clearer, 4 post's up, sorry to butt in.

In the Pic's: I used 5 for pullout to get it out of the way, 0 stock clerance to highlite the issue.

Pic 1, original stock size used, rough 0.5, should have very little blue showing.

Pic 2, original stock size used, rough 0.49, should have very little blue showing on the larger dia..

Pic 3, original stock size used, rough 0.48, almost no blue showing.

Pic 4, stock size inc. to 15 or larger, rough 0.5, drops rough pass at Arrow.

Thanks, Chip
