Re: New Version 0.9.0.15

I'll probably have a new version later tonight or tomorrow, so you may want to wait if you don't need these fixes right now.

Re: Box Joints

Looks can be deceiving. :lol: Once I got the preview working, I plugged the formula in Excel to spit out the coordinates, and drew it in AutoCAD. I created the g-code from the AutoCAD drawing. I still have to write all the toolpath code, after I spend another 15-20 or so hours on the interface. :o H...

Box Joints

I started working on box joints a few days ago, and made pretty good progress.
It'll probably be a few months before I can release a version that does box joints, but here's a little sample.

Re: JointCAM Dovetail

Awesome. At some point I have plans to do a tutorial on double dovetails. But I have a lot on my plate right now. :D Do you find that you need to adjust the Clearance setting? On my machine I use a setting of -.002 to get really tight fitting joints. I think this may vary with different bits, though.

Re: Error message

I spoke too soon. The issue is the new Scale Feedrate feature. I didn't want to over-write the settings, so it may be turned on with no scale factor set. If you see this crash, just go into settings, and make sure there's a non-zero value in the Scale Factor, or the Scale Feedrate is not checked. Th...

Re: Error message

I'm pretty sure I have this narrowed down to a depth per pass setting of zero for roughing passes.

I should have a new version Sunday night that fixes it.

I've been creating g-code regularaly for over a year and have never seen that error. What OS are you u...

Re: Tool Number Issue

Looks like I need a better method of detecting numbers. I'll work on that right now.

Glad you like it. An incredible amount of time and thought has gone into it.

Re: Error message

Can you click Save Project, and send me the .jnt file.
Sounds like JointCAM didn't like some of the data that you input. I need to know what that data was.

Re: Tool Table Font Size

It just happens to be the default behavior for the control that I used for the tool table.

I'm not sure if that behavior can be modified, but I'll take a look.
