Hi, Art

LazyTurn is getting better all the Time For Sure, For what it worth.

If you set Read Only to the LT.xml with a value of 0.1 for RoughPass.

When you start LT the value changes to .2 then it's a divide / multiply issue that persists.
If  Depth Per Pass is 0.10 PerPass =.0500 turns into 10 Depth Per Pass next time Rough Profile is opened again.
If  Depth Per Pass is 0.15 PerPass =.00750 turns into 15 Depth Per Pass next time Rough Profile is opened again.
and so-on. Pic's

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Willem

I re-worked your dxf 0,0 start point and added some radius's to the valleys and corners, I think with a pointed .050 cut-off blade you should be able to cut them.

Hears a picture, 1 dxf & 2 Tap files, Have fun.

Hi, Art

His profile is drawn off in X & Y, (outer space or it might as well be), We have no way to set part diameter like we can set X Zero Start Point.

The point I was trying to make is that with his dxf, As drawn, LazyTurn makes the Radius larger than it should be, Due to the top profile being tied to Y Zero.

After you correct the Y value with reference to his Y leaden to 0 point in his drawing, LazyTurn & LazyCam can get the diameter in Y correct.

Edit: Top pic is from outer space, Bottom pic as profile seems to indicate

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Willem

I think part of the problem is you really need to draw your profile as below.

Profile should be drawn in X - , Y + quadrant of your cad, Starting/Placing  profile from 0.0  right to left.

Your part Diameter will not be correct if the top of your profile issen't set in ref. to Y zero line.

This may change when things are finalized and rough and finish is combined, Don't now for sure.

Hope this Helps, Let me Know.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Rich

Hear is a Profile, You really can't cut it completely, But it's there, LazyCam generated not LazyTurn.

Hi, Art

The XML file in Reply # 392 two posts above has an error in it, It appears to be the RoughClearance value ," 1.", When I change it to "0.1"  LazyTurn start's working Again.

I have No idea how it got set to that value, As I've never changed a LazyTurn .xml before.

Thanks, Chip
