I've been working to make general purpose threading scripts for the members at our hackerspace. Scripts that face and turn down (or bore out) as well as thread. My efforts at understanding and explaining CNC lathe threading are here: http://code.google.com/p/sector67-sandbox/wiki/CNCLatheThread

[Emc-users] G-code sample for threading on lathe

2013-11-05 Thread Viesturs Lācis
Hello! Just a quick question: Can anybody share a piece of g-code that creates any kind of thread on lathe with LinuxCNC 2.5.0 on it? I need it for testing and since I do not have lathe I do not have any code for it. I just would like to be sure that the code itself is flawless. I do not mind rece
