Happy Easter Friends !
In the last 5 years I have had my reseller on my screen for tech support 3 times...they were completely lost , from the default screen etc.
1st time ever since Mill 6. 1999
All three of us still using an older release , Mill 2022 95 % of the time we use 2024 just to keep up with the times...
When trimming un check make planes associative ( ? )
Or every trim will create a new plane . Not the end of the world but your planes panel will get crowded
No magic button exists.
It's nice when it's a Native file coming from down the hall...
You'll get good at " cleaning up files , so you'll get what you want"
I HAVE SPOKEN
Watch a you tube on equal constant scallop...
Adjust your settings...
Zoom in on your path and look at the " Noise" your trying to smooth out...
If you post and get a .err error report it's because your post doesn't have this new tool path in it...the code is still good though.
I'll show you how to ad the path to the post if this happens...
Drop 15k more then MC for a seat of *.* and you'll get the best path possible first mouse click.. actually you won't even have the ability to adjust any parameters. It justs kicks out the best.
I don't have that luxury myself so I adjust the paths parameters to suit my needs as I go
( MC since 1999 )
I HAVE SPOKEN !!
Our reseller / staff was out here for other issues and I showed him the 7-9 second tool library, posting , file opening saga
He just said " Brutal"....
I figured out the 9 seconds to post , when the file name is posting the first time it goes fast..when you re post with the same file name and are " overwriting it " it takes 5 to 9 seconds...One drive / cloud awesomeness...
Cimco ( it was already here up and running
( for the 90's antiques )
Prior Ipswitch FTP ( 2000 era Hurco's )
Modern controllers pull .nc
Off the network Drive
A folder for each machine.
I'll be 60 this summer
I don't care anymore. Lol
I had to back up my workspace after getting hosed the first time.
After 3 months I had enough.
Im using 2022 until 2024 is released. First time I've ever had to go back a version since 6.1
120 G was the wheel back then.
Nobody makes them now
It was a fine grade soft wheel
A 46 is soft but coarse your going to get " clingers" or loose grit bouncing around in the wheel edge leaving a series of dotted lines on your carbon...
They can be removed by lightly pressing wood up against the wheel .
I'm still here but mainly check the obituary thread to see if I'm actually dead and this is actually a dream or something.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Old Forum Cheers !
