"squiffy" One also needs to take into account the face width of the cutter so it is not always possible to do that.
Also while dreaming of applications and methods, worm wheels need a plunge rather than go across the face, one could also use a special path to match a prospective worm with the curve/wrap of the worm wheel around the worm. You also need some crazy wide cutter to hob the worm itself Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
