and then looked at http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html/gcode/tool_compensation.html#_tool_table_a_id_sec_tool_table_a and http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html/gcode/tool_compensation.html#_cutter_radius_compensation_a_id_sec_cutter_radius_compensation_a i think. it looks like there may be multiple instances of links to parts of documentation, and i cant say if the landing spot is the same in every case. the examples for cutter comp have pictures of of part and path, and code fragments with g10 in the introduction. i did the g10 experiment and found that the commanded R value was entered as R*2 in the .tbl file. i also tried putting an R0.1 in the .tbl file, and that generated a "bogus lines ignored" message from axis tool table edit. --- On Tue, 5/29/12, John Thornton <bjt...@gmail.com> wrote: > From: John Thornton <bjt...@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [Emc-users] cutter radius compensation versus tool table data > To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > Date: Tuesday, May 29, 2012, 4:30 AM > Actually the docs should/will say > Cutter Diameter Compensation to avoid > that confusion.
