  1. JIM, Thanks. I closed and reopened mcam and it worked good. Its a good thing to know what you just explained.
  2. Im trying to get rid of the sequence numbers. Im using the mpmaster post for x3. I unchecked the sequence line numbers box in the control def and im still getting all the n numbers. What am i missing?
  3. Thanks Pete....... .......that works great
  4. ok that sounds right. so i guess i will just have to be patient.
  5. I tried to use the one that is in the chook folder for x2 and put in in x3 but it does not work. This is the chook im talking about Do we need an updated one to work in x3?
  6. Thanks so much Jim that seems to have worked.
  7. gcode. The configuration looks fine its going to x3. i did not copy anything manually i just did a side by side install and told it to use settings from x2 when it prompted me.
  8. When i try 2d highspeed toolpath in x3 it gives me an error and says that the toolpath is not found in the operation defaults. anyone else doing this. I did a side by side install
  9. Thanks all i will be sure to try all your suggestions
  10. Thanks......i will check into that.... Anyone else have any suggestions?
  11. We have a job coming through made from Oilite. Whick is an oil impregnated bronze. Im having trouble finding a supplier for flat or bar stock. If anyone can direct to a supplier that would be great.
  12. QMI2007, That worked perfect. only thing i changes is i put start at 0 and increment of 1. That gave me g54 and g55 just like i wanted. thanks QMI2007
  13. Im making 2 identicle parts and i want to use the transform toolpath with 2 seperate work offsets. So it will post out the first tool going to both offsets and so on. So it only picks up each tool once and goes from part to part. Been messing around with it but cant get it to post out good. any suggestions thanks
  14. What about the problem with it not remembering the stock size. Is it a bug or not? I get that alot and it is annoying.
  15. maybe a small rad will be acceptable
  16. What toolpath should i use to cut the angle on the top surface of this part.
  17. 1337 rpm and 1.1 feed rate. I would do a peck of like 1 to 1.5 times the drill dia.
  18. Thanks for all the suggestions......I will try some of them and let you know how it works out. Thanks again
  19. htm01 .. I see what your saying but what do you mean by click add depths. Is that in the toolpath perameters or in the project window somewhere. I dont see any add depths selection.
  20. mold100.. Cant find it can you send a link? Thnaks
  21. mold100.. Thanks Im going to draw it up and i will send it to you soon. I just need to figure out what font he wants... Any suggestions on that?
  22. mold100 Yes i need the letters to be offset down from the top arc the same distance. So all the letters will be the same depth from the top of the arc. Its for a air cleaner cover for my bosses motorcycle.
  23. Im trying to extrude letters down so that it will be the same depth into the solid. Is it possible? This is what i came up with so far but i have no idea how to make it the same depth
  24. MLS .....Thanks......I changed the gap setting to 5 inches and it worked good. Dont think i needed to go that high but it worked anyway. Thanks
