Non-circular boring. (Linuxcnc fun)

I hope to get the polygon working on a lathe.. I don't know how far I am going to take it.

Hi

I see you speak about lathe, did you think your actual .comp can work with lathe ? Can you think about including oval/eccentric ?

I will like to do a gladevcp panel like Andy lathe-macro for polygon/oval/eccentric but for now this is less than a beta. (started without your comp)

EMBED_TAB_NAME = Polygon/Oval
EMBED_TAB_LOCATION = ntb_preview 
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = gladevcp -u ./python/lathpolygonhandler.py -x {XID} ./lathepolygonmacro-fr-numpad.ui

So - tried also changing the rotation in relation to the z axis...

very cool. how long does it take to cut that?

Hmm - 20 RPM at .002/rev... 12 minutes? Give or take..

Amazing!

Forgot to post this... Lathe mode.. Then starting to upgrade the spindle encoder.

You do something i really like to implement on my lathe !! (i have already says something similar lol)

Can you share something that can help me ?
I have many difficulty understanding the sim config and i'm lost with dynamic_offsets/eoffset_per_angle.

Thanks for your dream video !

Encoder is a bit better.........
