Ellipse help

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I need your help. Has anyone here ever used an ellipse confused.gif ? This new part I am working on has one and I figured out how to draw it, but when I go to do a tool path it does not follow the arc. It makes a straight lines from point to point when I zoom up on it.

 

Is there any way to make it follow the line?

A=.71069 B=.14250, no angle. I have increased the number of points and that seems to help, but it is point to point and not one continuous arc or many little arcs and flats.

Thanks for you help in advance! smile.gif
