Hi Guys:
 Yes, for the most part, other than Wire-Frame mode and a few loading changes, you shoudl find it much the same.
Youll notice primarily that there is no vertical line on the left side coming out, it now goes in to better emulate the intended part.
Its also necessary for the new anti-gouge code, which is turned off in your version.

Hi Chip

I used the same tools and settings in the new and the old version but the new version needs A lot more time to make A toolpath.
If i load your king grahm from post #791 I get only errors .
From your objects out post #795 only one works and even in that one I get no good toolpath.

Hi Chip

Did A bit more testing and the king grahm works if I use A tooltip of 0.01 mm.

Willem

Art,
Using DEC17 version- 10dxf_HCIR - REPLY #325 - PAGE 33
The inserts rotate on my end also. Seems to have a problem on paths based on the clearance selected.
Example: clearance: .1 bad path
                            .01 ok ( c1 screen shot )
                            .001 ok ( in c1 screen shot but below the .01 clearance )
                            .2 bad
                            .3 ok / not full
                            .3 ok full path but need to increase the stock size
I didn't try posting any code. The un-rendered  / wire frame image is a nice addition as it better clarifies  the tool in lathe tools.
Also like the down line  ( instead of up ) at the end of the profile as it signifies a closure or end of profile.

Hi:

 I think I have this one caught. See if this works better..

( The green line in the end toolpath is unused, its just a diagnotic for me to see how far off the part is the tip
safety zone..

Hi ART,
   Does this look normal ?
There is no clearance for the trailing edge of the tool.
Thanks,
RC

Art  and all,

I have a new issue with posting to Mach 3 Turn now so please check it on your end.

It seems all my past Gcode files and new files that I've made today have an error when trying to run them in Mach3 Turn.

Below are a series of screen shots with the first one with the error on line 1 dialog box.

After I click the ok button the second box comes up (erroronline2budman2).

After that is closed, the macro window opens (erroronline2budman3).

After closing that, I just click "Run" again and it runs normally.

Now I'm not a Gcode guy but when I delete the "S3000" in the code (shown in pic named "erroronline2budman4"), then I don't get any issues. Has something changed in LTurn to cause this? It seems more of a Mach 3 Turn issue but I haven't changed any settings in Mach 3 Turn at all.

Please have a look for me, ok?

Thanks,
Dave
