Kmartin lmao:) and thanx everyone for the imput,Maybe ill just keep buying them lol

was thinking some kinda urethane or something

takes 5 minutes @work to scan them ,just thought it would be a neat project to do,make a couple pairs for each set of shoes,cant be that difficult just 3-d them with a ballnose:)

I am getting some orthotics made and gonna have them light scanned so I have the cad for them,question is has anyone machined orthotics on a mill ?,Im not payin 400.00 for extra pairs,Would like ideas on how to hold ,material.tools etc:) thanx brothers:)

I would like to see more options in the edit common parameters ,like being able to change the stock or change from drill to tap etc:)

thanx worked awesome:)

Thanx Gunther I will try:)

Ok thanks Crazy^Millman I will look into upgrading. thnx again cheers:)

Im sorry Crazy^Millman I forgot to include the specs:( Processor is intelcore i7 [email protected] GHZ 8 GB RAM HD Space= 453 GB VIDEO CARD is NVIDIA GeForce GT 530

I love this but when I try to change the defaults and save under a different name it goes all screwy:(

I hope this helps out! I noticed yesterday that if I want to make a assemblie and im getting the red circle, I just click on 1 of the tool name or holder name in the tool or length offset in the tool bar and it sorts them and moves the tool I want up the list and then lets me select it:) Hope this helps someone as it works for me.

Good morning everyone:) 1 of our programmers is having this issue,This is what I got in my email this morning. Hi Mike, So, here is what happens: When I just start MX-7 session I can bring casting STL file, modify it, shade it..... However, after I create or edit toolpathes making same STL visible (I saved it before on some level and then make this level visible) immediately crashes Mastercam. If I try to backplot any toolpath over visible STL - again crash. Once when I tried to backplot over STL it crashed with the message from NVIDIA OpenGL driver (see attached file). At the same time same STL works fine in verification. May be you will be able to find anything about this problem. Thanks, Daniel Any help appreciated:)

YES THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING:(

thank you this is awesome:)

Thanks again Thad for pointing me in the right direction, here is the solution for anyone needing it. The file mwMachSim.ini needs to be deleted and is located in the My Documents\my mcamx7 folder. just close x7 and delete this file and youll be good to go,when you reboot x7 it will create a new one!

Thad thanks for responding,its funny on 2 other machines where I did the updates they work fine, just the full version seems screwed up.

Good day:) Ive just installed x7mu2 full on 1 of my machines and when I start it up I get what looks like a chinese error,anyone else experiance this?

Did the auto update and all is good:)

I have used the fbm drill for castings that have alot of flat bottom drilled holes at different depths.It works very well for that!

Good morning peeps I was wondering if anyone knows how to set the home position on a okk 660 with a fanuc 16m control? I should note that I know how to change the parameters and stuff including overriding the limits just not sure where the exact positioning should be I have done the z perfect because it has a line up function on the side,but x and y dont thnx in advance

Good morning people:) I have the new cimco and dnc max,I was wondering if anyone could help me with a issue,I have a okk fanuc 16 m machine and when ever I run drip feed on it I always have to stop the transmission at the end of it.All other machines stop automatically. thanks for your time:)

thanks for all the replies:)

Just lengths and possibly tool ware

progressive tool+die and 2 machines with either clearance tolerances ofr +-.001+we change tools alot

Good morning people, I was wondering if any of you use a tool presetter in a tool+die enviroment,we are thinking about getting 1 but not sure if its practical.
