RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Cam track help! coordinates from SIC

The file is cam_track.xls in the files section. Sorry for the confusion, I
forgot that attachments are not allowed on this list. The file contains the
coordinates for the full 360 degrees and includes a chart showing what the
plot will look like. This is to be machined into a piece of 4130 or 4140
steel 1.675 -.001 +0 diameter 2.1 inches in length. The chart contained on
the drawings only contains the first 90 degrees.
