Ahh, OK.
to start I'm just trying to make a cone that I can cut into the foam. It will be 1 inch rad on side A/Z (U/V) and 2 inch rad on the other (X/Y). I am able to make this .bbcd file. What I need to do is figure out how to make the file in relation to my machine bed size (width 36"). I figure that I could shoot out 2 lines tangent and 180 degrees out from either side of the cone until it reaches 36". I will then drop a "circle between 2 points" at the end of it and that will be the actual machine movement to produce the cone I mentioned. However, I haven't been able to figure out how to drop those tangent lines.?.?
To simplify things and get BobCad talking to Mach in a langauge that they both understand I'll post a .bbcd file that's symmetrical I'll probably be a square with rounded corners.
This site doesnt seem to be OK with uploading .bbcd files. I haven't actually tried it but I was just looking at the allowable formats and it's not on the list.
Thanks Again!! |
