First the requirement
1. it has to have a Post-processor for the Sherline Mill, EMC (CNC) that runs the g-code.
What I mean is that the g-code that the CAM program make has to be able to run without
any mod on the EMC CNC software to cut the part
2. make g-code from this part
Is there anyone who can help me to find the software I need or somoene who has some experience in this area? It would be greate if someone could point me in the right direction.
If somone would like to make a g-code from the stl file just to see how the It works, I could post it to you.
What programs are other sherline owners using to make g-code ?
Thanks
Alf
I have did it with MeshCAM, FreeMill, and since I don’t now how proper g-code has to look, I ‘m lost, I have to say that the code that MeshCAM made looked the best on the back plot, but It has errors.

Som are real versions and som are demo versions and will not make g-code in demo mode. Other were too complex for me to be abel to make g-code or I could not make it work.
