I can't even assign a value to a global named variable now. The last line here, fails: snip header, this is First active code line: #<_bb_section_lend> = 1.00000000 ( inches ) ( we want a nice 1/8" radius on the transitions where ) ( the width changes, but we are using a 1/16" tool ) #<_corner_rad> = [0.125000000 + 0.03125000] ( slot in lid panel ought to be longer than it is, so will have ) ( to be dug out to fit this for artistic reasons ) ( touch off Z at surface, X, Y at left rear corner of workpiece ) #<_lid_section_lend> = 3.00000000 ( inches ) #<_key_width_end> = 0.75000000 ( at least 3/4" for strength ) #<_key_width_lid> = 0.62500000 ( and 5/8" in lid so 1/2" can be buried/glued in slot ) #<_key_thick> = -0.25500000 ( trim to fit so it can move with the seasons ) #<_feed_rate_s> = 6.00000000 #<_feed_rate_f> = 42.0000000 #<_z_tmp> = 0.00000000 #<_z_safe> = 0.02500000 #<_z_step> = [#<_key_thick> / 20.00000000] (s/b minus value ) ( -0.012750 is correct ) ( now we need an array of data to feed nurbs with so initialize about 10 points for x,y ) ( twenty total, even are x, odd are y ) #<_angle_inc> = 9.00000000 ( in the code ) The above line fails, spitting out ###### for #<_angle_inc> Thanks Andy.
