    Have you checked with your Mastercam Reseller yet? They most likely will have something for you.

    I called Mastercam and they are working on one for me its a farley simple code.
    I used a generic HAAS post suplied in MCX
    F100
    G0 x--y--
    G1 X--Y--
    G2 X--Y--I--J--
    G3 X--Y--I--J--
    Each line of code needs a G comand, G0 is interpited as torch off, G1,G2,G3, torch on. It's easy to edit the code on a small prg. but on a large file it sucks.
    Tnaks for the reply.

    The bright side to this is that at least you will have a post you can use.

    Teacher,
    Do you have a post but it is not putting in The G0, G1 G2 etc.... on each line.
    if this is the case send the post I will look at it for you.
