repeat only making 2 instances of parts was created by burdickjp
I'm having trouble getting this repeat cycle to do more than 2 instances of the part. Any suggestions?
(tableClamps)
(program cuts in quadrant I)
#<countparts> = 3 ;how many parts to do
#<spaceparts> = 8 ;distance between repititions of the parts
#<zstep> = 1 ;distance to feed in z for every pass around
#<positionslot> = 9
#<heightslot> = 7.5
#<depthslot> = 5.5
#<diameterclearance> = 10.5
#<diametercounterbore> = 16.0
#<widthclamp> = 19
#<lengthclamp> = [#<positionslot> + #<diameterclearance>/2 + #<diametercounterbore>/2 + #<depthslot>]

It's because your not updating the X position, it will cut all past the first one in the second location. Save the current X then add the offset.
