i WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE STEPS IN ORDER ON HOW TO DRAW A LINE AND APPLY IT TO THE SURFACE OF A SPHERE. THANK YOU, BRADY

Hows it going? One thing for sure you make me think, things are becoming more clear but I may have to come back to that question in the future...
Yes I did cut that mold in oak and its up in the...

Your pics and answer made something click for me... That first question I was trying to ask is... You choose the polyline why not the control point curve or the interpolate ? I recently made trim for...

Hows it going ? I'm just learning rhino now and I have just a few questions, It is really just curiosity, that is I learn better if I know the reason for things that I am doing. I made a closed...

Hello, This is the start of the drawing. I am making it to be 2 inches deep in the center of the bowl overall. The top of the bowl is in the shape of the oak leaf, where the edges of the top of the...

I know how to draw the leaf, I DO NOT know which viewport to use to get my drawing lines to go across the leaf so i can use the 2 rail sweep; (like drawing the inside of the bowl) an then making...

could someone explain how to put the threads on a ball ... how to make them flow. Thanks Brady

instead of die cutting, is it possible to cut with a cnc router; if so what kind of router bit would you use? any help would be greatly appreaciated, thank you, brady

I'm in rhino and i have an outline of a panther that i want to cut on cnc router using deskcnc. I am able to save the file as dxf and i am able to open it in deskcnc but only some of the outlines in...

What DXF and What other file type are you interested in? Is your chair able to all be cut out on a cnc machine and can you post a pic of one done; Thanks Brady

I have attached a pic of what I'm trying to do; I want to pocket between the teeth of the sprocket and the large inner circle and the center circle is the bore. I do not understand how the pocket...

LOOK AT THE PICS FIRST....Y see where the tool path is missing. I figured if I use a ball bit for cutting it could undercut around this, I can not figure out how to do this; What am I doing wrong?

I really dont understand what I'm doing, I need advice; I want to know the best way to save a .stl file (binary or ascii) and I need you to explain why and the difference between them? Also cutting...

Im getting ready to make 2 bar stools and I want to make the seat out of oak with the gougeing/ routing out of where you butt is. like the seat in a rocking chair only smaller. does anyone know where...

Hey this is the best thread...
Has anyone come across a parrot stl or dxf file? Thanks Brady

Hey thkoutsidthebox; Nice work, What size bit are you useing for the roughing? and what size for the finishing pass? Also what depth? Thanks Brady

Joe S.; With out spending any money go to the vectorart3d the above site that ger21 mentions, they have a 3d stl file you can down load free. I did this in the recessed leaf turn out good, but still...

KIWI, That works slick, This is so much easier than G02, G03 moves. Really appreaciate the help. (YOU DOING IT FOR ME) Many Thanks!!! I have learned so much thru this post alone... What is the R---...

Ok, KIWI I have a pic of what i would call the mustache effect; Could you just do the g-code for the arc but not on a slant. where you have the 13.99 should be X0 Y1 with the arc at the end but not...

OK MITSUI SEIKI THATS IT!!! That is what Im talking about, But now things have gotten more complicated; the last g-code Kiwi sent me I have noticed that the arc is right to go around my picture the...

Ok Kiwi, Your getting closer the arc is perfect. Need the same for the bottom half of arc. Is this a linearized move there is no G02 or G03 move and where you getting it? Also can you read my last...

Mitsui Seiki, My controller can run this code; But I dont think it is reading it right. The 24" ramp is fine but the arc top half does ramp but to 1 inch then it goes to do the bottom half at the...

Here it goes; The easy part is the straight line Z0.0 the other end of the line at Z-.25, Now I want to put an arc at the end. (Pic attached) In a previous message someone mentioned a linearized move...

My control dont support helix; ican use g02,3 and i can use g17,19. And now I'm confused. How do I linearize the arc move? That is what g02,3 are for to eliminate excessive amounts of code? RIGHT? ...

Kiwi, I really appreaciate the offer. But I really haven't got what I'm doing figured out yet. And deskcnc just got back with me and the 2nd generation controller i have is not capable of a g02,3...

Never tried a helix, I do not have g-code to try. I'm still lost!!! Since my machine will make a linear move and ramp the Z axis. This ramping function I trying to do may not be able to be done...

Are you saying to use the G17,18,19 in place of the G02,3

I dont know how to say this so you will understand what im doing. So here it goes; I figured out that i can rout a line from 0 go 24" and start at the top of the wood 0 and go 24" and be at a 1/4"...

Adobe machine, Thanks; That works, this is much easier to do. Thanks again to all, Brady

Ok, I'am trying to look at the cfg files. Now what program do I need to open these kind of files. both win98 and xppro come up and say windows can not open this type of file.
