Did you receive a satisfactory answer to this question? I too am interested
in the answers or anything learned.

I am also learning Dolphin and enjoying it. I have set up a Knowledgebase
where I am archiving tutorials, examples, sample parts, etc. related to
Dolphin. I'm happy to share with I have learned.

Interested parties should contact me off-list for a link.

Group,

Being relatively new to CNC and very new to Dolphin I am seeking some
instruction from the Dolphin users relating to using the A axis.
In one of the demo pkg I tried you had to lay out the 'contours' in
the
Y axis then run a conversion program to put them in the A axis.
I have read and reread the Dolphin manual and tried several scemes but
am I unable to get results. Michael mentioned he had an AHHA post file
with
4th axis enabled but I cannot find it on the CD ( to compare with the
MAXNC). I see the A axis defined and referenced in the MAXNC post that I
use, but again I am not familiar with post programming. Could some one
please send me, off line of course, a simple dra file and instructions on
how to get the 4th or A axis to work?
