HELP! HELP!

[Michael Reynolds]

I'm trying to do usable toolpaths for the "car-I" model for our openhouse COMING UP THIS SUNDAY, and I'm getting a message that says "error allocating memory" or something. Granted, I'm NOT an expert on surface toolpaths, but I really need help getting the nc program for this one. I'd like to use a 1/2" carbide 4 flute EM for a rouph path, a 1/2" ball (carbide) EM for the finish path, and the same 1/2" EM for profiling the perimiter of the thing.

I'm pretty sure that the file is still on the FTP site, so any help would be VERY appreciated...

The first person that sends the usable file (mpfanpst) gets the keychain from the open house mailed to them.....

Thanks for all your help!!!!!!!!

Mike, how about a report on your open-house !?!?! Did all go as planned? Was everyone impressed ?!? (we all feel like we were involved!)

Hi Bertau!

The open house went ok, most of machines were set up and running. I had our Hardinge cobra lathe running salt & pepper shakers, our Monarch running a hair dryer boss, had our cell con horizontal ALMOST set up to run Cadcam's car, but didn't have the time or the nerves to run drip feed for the first time in front of LOTS of people. Ran keychains (the one on the ftp site) on one of our Kryle VMC's, and last but not least, had tensile strength test bars set up & running on our Miyano twin spindle.

I'll add a link to our schools web page so you can check out our labs, n stuff. I was just there myself, and wasn't impressed with the page.

Anyway, THANK YOU ALL for all your help! Especailly Cadcam, for all he did. (I plan on running that car sometime this week, by the way...)
