Hi All,
I'd like to create a wizard to cut multiple parts from a tap file that only contains code for cutting one part.
I'd like the Wizard to ask how many parts across and how many parts high. It would also ask for part width and height. It would then create a new tap file that would contain all start up messages, plus the looping plus the gcode from the selected file, then the stop and clean up code.
I would like to be able to use a gcode file that is capable of cutting a single part if possible, meaning that I'd like the wizard to strip off the begin and end of the program. I would have no problem creating the actual cutting code as a subroutine (M98, M99)
Has anyone out there done something like this before? Is it possible?
