Hi Chip,

It's been posted before under its original file name, but here it is fresh.

Also mentioned in previous post, the dxf offsets correctly in DeskCNC and CamBam on this Dell.

Thanks, Paul, Central OR

Hi, Paul

I was able to do this with values shown in Pic. below.

What values are you using in your other programs for tool size. ?

Thanks, Chip

Hi Chip,

Here's a saved .Lcam project with all the ops I'm after, and a sample of working G-code for the outside chain.

The outside chain is the one I'm having trouible with. The offset for the outside chain is supposed to be a a profile cut that cuts the piece from the rectangular stock.

In my working version, from DeskCNC, I do 0.060" depth conventional mill passes leaving 0.010" stock. Then a climb mill pass at full depth to clean up the edges.

The five circles to the right are drill cycles. The larger circle to the left is done with a pocketing routine.

Your sample shows a pocketing routine for the outside chain.

Thanks for the quick follow-up,

Paul, Central OR

I think that is the Rev that Art put on the web..

Hi, Brian

Upload Options hear, instead of Ziping it and uploading.

Thank, Chip
