Here is a quick outline for a proposed "hardware" simulator for cnc. it is going to facilitate the software development of the raster image print drivers. i am looking for comment on whats missing. this program is going to recieve step\dir pulses from the software being written to drive the thing. with luck, that software will end up living in a microprocessor, and only a front end driver will be on the PC..
this link will take you to an interactive 3D model of the painter. you need the "edrawings" viewer software.
http://www.vacuumstudios.com/painter.htm <---500k so it takes a while to load. also, there are 3 parts that are unexplicably floating by one of the wheels. i would right click em and hide them.
comments appreciated... espeically criticism
