Sam, I heard you say your circle is a polygon of a thousand sides. In APT4 a circle of 2500 inches radius is calculated as a straight line. That allows an algorithm for part profiles to be described as all radiuses and the variable values determine the lines and circles. Just another possibly interesting random detail out of the wet ram(thanks Gene) brought out by a random comment.
Love your videos.
