ok,  sleep well

I've given up on this for now - I haven't seen anyone produce actual GCode as yet, but seems it's possible, so must be a setup issue somewhere on this computer. Might try a different one.

think you take the wrong post,  better rename the post from stuart. (it has the same name as the standard one)

attached fusion file & gcode it post.    (download & open in f360, with the links above seems fusion open existing files)

wcs zero mid/front of the hexagon

(don't machine this, ain't going to look good)

look here

two mins work

Hi, and thanks for the file. Appreciate the help.

However, it seems the only way I can illustrate the issue is take that file and produce a video capture of my screen, showing that it does not work...I get the same error message when post processing. The youtube link is: https://youtu.be/mVVMVNxgkTM.

It would be really nice if I could get the actual GCode file produced by a post processor, rather than just the model file...

Regards,

Load that fusion file into fusion use the pp I supplied and generate the gcode your self

Do not play with the settings in fusion except to select the pp


The gcode is to big to post. Anyway I have deleted it now

The pp works .
Fusion works.
It’s the way you are using it , all I did was select the x face in rotation that will be the flat end of the part in the case I uploaded

Hi Stuart,

that is exactly what I did - there's one file in the zip, the Fusion 360 file. If you look at the video, you will see two instances of Fusion 360 open - the second one opened with your file when I clicked on it. The video shows in real time I did nothing other than select the default preprocessor (Mach4) and all I get is the error message. I did nothing else! Seems no-one believes it doesn't work, even despite the video evidence!

Also, all my GCode .tap files are small text files, much less than 6Megs (normally a few k, for the most complex).

I don't understand the issue...but thanks for trying.

Regards,

Barry

Hi Barry,

When you make your YouTube video 'Private' no one else can view it. 

Tweakie.

Really? You should be able to use the link, I thought. I'll check into that right now and make it public, if necessary.

Thanks for mentioning it.

OK, I set it to 'unlisted'. Will try out the link on a separate PC to check I can see it. https://youtu.be/mVVMVNxgkTM
