Im working on some code for you it will be a little bit.
Hang in there!

Just wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

this is sooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing

i cant believe my eyes

can you tell me what did you use to do it

I am really really embarrassed for asking for any thing

what you did for me is just great but i have to do a simple presentation on how the code goes and how it was done

thanks again

p.s. : if you ever come to egypt please give me the honer of meeting you and returning your favor

That's really neat. Will predator do it with arcs instead of straight lines?
It would be shorter and smoother.

Here is a VB program which will generate the sphere GCode.

[tanman]

i really don't know what is "predator" ???

but i also thought that the code would be shorter using arcs

nevertheless "Perfect Circle" work is amazing as well

all i need now is for some one to tell me how he did it ?? using what tools

because I am asked to do a presentation about how this code work and how it was wrote

and thanks for the sphere code generator but i don't know how to add the cube under the half sphere

[tanman]

HELP !!
my instructor asked me how to do it :S :S :S
i understand it's by a function
but how exactly
my presentation is in one hour
