You will forever regret building a plasma machine without a proper Z
axis and Torch Height Control (THC). That was the action of the torch
touching and then retreat to cut that you saw. Without the Z axis you
will cut some hobby stuff, maybe. To do a proper job of it, the Z axis

Will it work... well you saw the video and yes it works.
Is it productive and will it produce clean cuts NO!
Can you get started that way if your on a budget Yep.

Let's be clear though that both G64 and the Douglas-Peucker algorithm
are just smoothing filters. They neither know nor care that your
original curves are composed of circular-arc segments. If it's important
to you to preserve their circular-arc character then you need to use a
toolpath
Since LinuxCNC does NURBS and b-splines, why not fit splines while
you're at it.

Andy,
Thanks for the help. Line 1068 is for metric. I was able to go from there and
found inch. I have not touched the lathe for a few month so I am kinda having

Thanks again.
