I had looked at a cnc nibbler and scrollsaw.
I thought it might be nice if Axis could show the tool orientation.
So I made a tiny hack in glcanon.py and minigl.c
What I did was modify the disk on top of the cone, and the disks on top
and bottom of round tools.
I simply enabled and used the gluPartialDisk instead of gluDisk.
This makes most views in Axis show a PacMan like tool ( or cone ).
And very simple coding can show a tool orienting itself to the path.
(I havent installed the wokawoka music yet :-)
Is it useful?
