RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: creating toolpath..

John,

I get the serious feeling that you do not understand how Vector works or
what it does. You do not draw the toolpaths in Vector either. You just
draw the outline and then select pocket and set the parameters. The
toolpaths are generated automatically. Pretty high tech and advanced.

Let's just continue to agree that we are going to disagree on this.
