And the error I get in Mach 3 mill is:
"Radius to end of arc differs from radius to start on Line # 13."
So here are the questions:
1) What is wrong with the g code? What did TurboCadCam forget?
2) Does anyone use DNC from the serial port to their machine? What's an affordable 3 axis controller that I could buy?
3) Whats an affordable cam package that would bridge the gap from turbocad to mach 3? (I'm using an Xylotex controller.)
Thanks,
