Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Toothed pully design information needed.

Bill,

Yes, it would be nice to be able to cut timing belt pulleys. But don't
you use a flycutter for someting like that? I guess it would be useful
to have a program to calculate the pitch dia, blank sizes and all that
stuff. Please advise when you get it working!
