The Drill and Chamfer operations obviously hit the same coordinates. I'd like those coordinates in a sub program. Can I tell GibbsCAM to do that, or is this one of those "its whatever your post tells it to do" deals.

Thanks

All of my posts output subs by default, and I had some posts modified as long hand posts for dnc operation. E-mail an NCF file with markups to the post department at GibbsCAM to have your post modified.

Hey Cadman. I read in one of your posts that you have your own seat of gibbscam. I was thinking of buying it, but have some questions for you. Since your right buy me thought we could meet up for a beer. E-mail me Dtm016@yahoo.com

Sent you an e-mail.
