Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Huh, wanted Gcode files...??????

Hi Kevin,

I posted information, drawings AND CNC code over in the SherlineCNC
list's files. Couldn't post it in the files here. Actually, it is so
short, I'll post it here.

Upon examination, I don't believe it's code that could be run
immediately. I'll look a little more.

EARLY CODE! Some observations:

* Doesn't say what size endmill to use!
* Therefore, no tool offset.
* No initialization, i.e., G20 G17 G90 F2
* No spindle on/off. I really like using them.
* Makes only SINGLE PASS
* "mills" the screw holes!

Anyway, something to study.
