Dolphin Lathe tool dra files
« on: January 12, 2013, 06:22:55 AM »
I am currently making up some lathe tool DRA files for Dolphin Turn to use in the simulations, if anyone is interested in them I can attach.
They are metric tools with different nose rads in each style, so far I have
SVJB 2020 in 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 nose rads
PDJN  2020 in 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 nose rads
PCLN 2020 in  0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 nose rads

Although these are metric designations they should also work fine for imperial people, they will just have to  convert the nose rads to know what to choose.

Is there no end to your kindness and giving generosity?

Maybe I'll be able to use these someday as I have not yet purchased Dolphin.

You inspire me, sir-  :)

Purely selfish Dave, I am doing them primarily for myself :)
Will upload later on with the ones I have done, I hope to get some boring bars done as they are the ones that really can save crashes as you see the part being wiped out in the simulation if things are wrong :D

Oh and just in case you dont know, simply changing the approach in the tool selection will change it from front or back style tool, see screenshots.

Thanks Hood, and hopefully I will be able to use them. Should I create some at a later time I'll just post in this thread.
