The "Q" lets you start a thread at any radial angle while keeping the start point in the same place. Gibbscam handles this simply by projecting the the "X", "Z" start point. This works only to a point. On a tapered (4) start .25 pitch thread the start point is moved out so far i no longer have clearance to produce the thread. I own Compost and can modify my post but it's a huge task to undo the projection Gibbscam hard codes in to the path. Anyone have an example of a post that that allows you start a thread of this type using the "Q" function? |
