3DCalculator - A small freeware to calculate 3D rotations

Thank you sir. I will see about putting this to good use.

This is excellent work and anyone getting into Multi-Axis work will benefit greatly from this tool.

This can help with 4x horizontal machining centers or HBMs to determine what a given coordinate or workoffset value will be when rotated around the B axis (Y axis) for example.

Not a tool for more sophisticated work like simultaneous 5 axis milling but it can help with simple problems, step-by-step validations. But the main reason I shared was to offer the source to people that want to start to develop apps.

I learned programming too late in life and I know how difficult it can be for old dogs like us...

If you spot a bug or have a suggestion for enhancement, let me know my friend.

What if I do 5-Axis work everyday... and that calculator is still over my head? :blink:
