I wrote some parametized code last night to make protective bellows. I wrote a
subroutine to draw the right side of the bellows, then I wanted to rotate the
coordinate system 180 degrees and draw the left side using the same subroutine.
I couldn't find any coord system rotate code, only offset codes. Surfing google
it seemed G68/69 would work for me, but emc2 doesn't recognize this code.
Anyone know how to do this?
I did get it working by adding another parameter to the subroutine that takes
+1 or -1. I then multiply all coords by this parameter allowing me to flip the
drawing. I am just curious if there is a better way. IMO Coord system
transforms would seem to be a useful option for gcoding.
