Hi RICH, I remember now....you only using LC-TURN.
I'd forgotten all about that or I wouldn't have bothered you with it. As I said...I'm just curious.
Thanks a bunch for looking at it though.
Regards,
RC

Just a few general comments.
I don't use polylines / always explode them into lines, arc's, circles / basic  elements.
I don't know about Autocad light. At one time it was a PITA  if you got a light version and had to use the generated dxf in some other program or even within Autocad, but that was a long time ago.
The square, square with rounded corners were polylines, while the mitered square was a combination polyline and line ( which you could create as a single polyline if you wanted to) and the last one was individual elements. don't know if mixing them up creates any     quirks in LazyCam.
Other than that the drafting looked ok ( just checked end points with units set to 4 places and not 2), no double lines, etc..

As far as Lazycam Mill goes, i just didn't have the energy to hack my way thru it. Fooled with it some and let it go, but, I had the option to use other purchased software. The turn part was enough hours spent.  

Sorry, can't be of much more help,
RICH

  

Hey,
Just thinking,could it be that it needs the lead in to the next piece to follow some of the rules
similar to compensation. Drag the point to make a second move before the next profile?
Just a brain cloud. Isn't Chip well versed in mill?
RICH

Tanks Rich,
I see that saving as r12 only converts SOME of the arcs.....weird.
Redrew and saved as 2004 and all looks clean and saved as arcs.
But, LC still doesnt like the second one from the left.
Beyond me......

Hi Chip...if you're watching, do you mind to take a look ?
Thanks Guys,
RC

Just for kicks i decided to try using LazyCam Mill.
Your recent dxf post worked for me.
I found an extra vertical line in the first square when lazycam imported it, right  side of it, deleted it, drug the chain up so there was only one in projects, clicked on each drawn figure, did the pocket thing for each, posted code, if i remember correctly.
I think the secret was that I told Lazycam Mill not to torque me off or i would ban it from the pc and it listened.

MODIFIED: IT WAS A LAYER THAT I DELETED. SEE NEXT POST ON WHAT I DID

Rich:

Do me a favour please and grab the DXF from my post in reply 25 - back quite a ways. That is pretty much the original file. Work your magic on it and see if you can figure out what works on the right hand mitred rectangle. The other rectangles seem to be ok. Including the opposite mitred block on the left. This file is all arcs and lines. (at least that's how I drew it)

Sorry, but bad memory on what i did.
See attached.

Sage,
Dinner about to be served. Will try the file posted in #25 after eating.
We'll see if  a glass of wine helps. In the mean time you may want to try what i just posted.
Pure luck my friend!
RICH

MODIFIED: INITIAL TEST OF YOUR DXF POSTED IN #25. NOTE THE CUTTER DIAMETER I USED

Now THAT takes the cake.
That line IS NOT and NEVER WAS any part of what I have here.
Thanks RICH, I'll bug you NO MORE on this.
Sage, Astr and everyone else......GOOD LUCK.
All done,
RC

Overloaded:
We got way off track there. I was just trying to start over with the original.
Please stay in the loop. You were on to something I think.

Rich:

I see you couldn't pocket the right hand end object (yet) which was the point here.
Using a .01 cutter is pointless since - who has such a cutter? - not me. The point would be to do it with a 1/16 cutter.
It works ok on the left hand end block which is for all intents the same as the right end.
