Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: interpolation and algorithms of multiple axes was Re: Pulse Gen

Thanks for the clarification but, if there is no software out there which
would support this approach yet, what's the point of working just on the
'black box'? In my simplistic way, I would assume that the practicalities of
modifying software should come first. I'm not trying to be a wet blanket but
it just sounds a bit like making a pretty box for a wood fired microwave
oven without the technology to make it work.
