Ahhhhh.... I had the great pleasure of working with Kitamuras,...a great machine...Mycenter Zeros & Mycenter two . Both with Yasnac Controls . jm2c Kenneth Potter

Your ATI card is JUNK!......Dump it ....do a forum search about ATI cards ...... good luck

Sweeping a hole is NOT Rocket Science!...Gheeeh Eye in the indicator to center visualy weres the tip during a sweep looks concentric to the hole. Sweep X.... X zero Deg to X 180 Deg ...Take note of the differnce & jog X axis to half of that difference. Sweep Y......Y 270Deg to 90 Deg....Repeat the same steps as X Take some time to practice .....you can get it down to 60 seconds.

Ohhhhhhh Boy We have been down that road before on Mastercam books.....

I may be wrong but i belive 4th Axis Verify in standard or solid mode is an option add on....$$$$....The tool rotates around the part...The part doent rotate in verify !

I like using a shadow graph for presetting TLO,s Nothing touches the tool {tips/edges}!

Belive it...... We were still rooting for the wings ,,,, Back in those days when the Red Wings SUCKED ,Thats when they were called the """"" Dead Wings""""""" The stadium home games was still a sell out....That why were called Hockey Town! win or lose we sell out our home games & tickets are Scalped for #X the face value !

Quit Playa hatin on the RED WINGS WING WIN !.....HOCKEY TOWN RULES

James has it right on the money.....Keep those spindal running! Standing at the control punching in NC text is great practice but IT TIES UP THE MACHINE RUN TIME!.. Time for me to crack a cold one [ 06-08-2002, 04:54 AM: Message edited by: Kenneth Potter ]

Hummm thing must be picking up......Its been kinda slow the past few months.

For some reason I cant get on The ftp sight.... Can you email me the post? I would like to take a dive at it

Look at his date of birth! That makes him 46!. After his inflaming post i thought for sure he was 18 to 25 Jumping from Bobcad to Mastercam musta blew a few of his brain cells out!

BerTau Right click should work in all of mastercams data input fields. TRy it in a tool path parameter page.

OK ok ok ok ...This is an April fools joke ..right ? OHHhhhh snap!!!!! This is June & this Clown is for REAL! quote: The rest of you insecure jag offs know what you can kiss BOBCAD RULES <----------- AHhahahahah ROFOLMFAO

You can also dynamicly pick a location... Just right click on the input field inside the tool stop page.There is will ask you for X,Y,Z....And tons of other cool stuff to pick .....right from the drawing screen. Another USEFULL UNDER-USED Funtion

Go to your backplot Display Parameters & use the tool stop parameters....There you can specifiy tool Backplot stop values! Very useful Under used tool. Have fun !

Rodger You have a great outlook & additude! you bought your own seat of Mastercam And made yourself more Employable. quote: , But how many shops out there will hire a programer with no experience? Not many !....Buying your own SEAT OF MASTERCAM PUTS YOU IN THE DRIVERS SEAT! You also by-pass the shop politics & Games. You can hone your cam skills 24/7 you dont have to kiss Butt to have seat time ! And.....and...and.... If one can spend 5K on a Snap on tool box & 10K on the tools & gages to fill that tool box then Buying a seat of mastercam would be just another tool that can open up many doors for you!

Mastercam is not Mastercad?solids & with Program coding & application style it NEVER WILL BE !.... The cad side of Mastercam cannot hope improve untill it dumps its current Medieval program coding & application style. Its not true windows Period ! I have been informed that VERSION 10 is a true modern windows apps That open up the Cad /solids to unbeliveable power. That will end The complains many of us have. ((((((((((((((Solid at at price ))))))))))))))) GET it....its cheap...you have to learn solids someday anyway....Get your feet wet ! Just my Opinion Thanks
