sigh... If someone implemented a tool table which links (or is part of a relational database) from which you can scan a barcode on a fixture and have it bring up the g-code to machine the part and automatically query the tool info to order up the tools necessary for the job to complete -- all complete with more scanning to verify that the assembled tools are sufficient for the job, THEN yes I was apparently asleep enough to have missed it... Andy, I remember you mentioning that you had a prototype of something. I did not have the time then, nor frankly do I probably have the time now, to review it (unless it solves a critical need I have in front of me). Some of what is being discussed might just do that and demand a slice of my immediate attention. I will also point out that I said before and will again that I will not have time to implement or maintain this myself and will use whatever is provided as long as it is stable. I have preferences for certain things and not for others because I have been shot in the foot by some of these dependencies. My comment was intended to encourage Sarah and others to hack a demo together so we can compare. My intent was NOT to piss you or anyone else off. If I had offended, please accept my apology. While I come from a culture in which insults are allowed, and honesty/frankness are prised, I really meant no offence. At this point I am going to head home to work on the next must do thing, sleep, and then back to work.
