Hi, Art

Been thinking about this .1 and Smaller values issue, always thought LazyCam worked with Unit's.

OK, So when LC is loading Inch DXF's, Multiply by a factor of 10, 100, 1000 or some Suitable Factor, Then after it's finished and ready to Post, Divide out the Scaled Factor Used. ? Thought's

You now, I'm Really think about this In-side and Out-side Profile Stuff.

Thanks, Chip

Hi Chip:

   Its still in units, but I made the mistake of not converting to integers. I may in fact at this point stop everythign and do it all in intgers by mutiplying everythign by 10,000. Migth make all the small number errors go away. Trouble is thats allot of changes to make. Im still evaluating if that necessary..

Hi, Art

Thanks for the comment's, It's never an easy road to travel.

In the picture below, Previous ver., It's a .050 cutter, What's the top line profile used for, It seems to have an error/break at the arrow and at several other locations.

Thanks, Chjp

Hi

I'm trying to have a go with lazyturn but it doesn't run, it tells me that sgcore.dll is missing and then the paths it's tried, I have mach 3 *********.18 installed along with lazycam but I've also downloaded and installed the stand alone lazycam installer for version 3.??? Still the same message.

I've put the .exe file in the mach3 folder, I also did a search for the missing file and it was not found on the hard drive, this is with all files showing on a win2000  computer
nothing elso installed apart from mach.

Thanks
Steve

Forgot to add, this is with the nov19 version.

Steve:

 You have to first install the LazyCam update on the downloads page of the main website.
Its a special build that includes the required files..

Thanks for the quick reply Art, I'll get it downloaded and try again tomorrow.

Is there a way to run lazyturn separately on another computer, my cad is on my laptop in my nice warm house and my cnc computer is in my COLD workshop :D

Thanks
Steve

Just curious Art, is there a reason why this version won't post to Mach 3 turn? The other versions did but not this one for some reason.

Thanks for all the hard work -  ;)

 It should post fine.. It wont automatically send to Mach3, but it will create a post file..
