Hi guys, 

Created this simple, but effective profile editor for myself. 
It is a lightweight Tk-based conversational editor for lathe profiles, designed for LinuxCNC / PathPilot style workflows.It lets you sketch, edit, and preview turning profiles interactively, then generates a G71 or G72 roughing cycle with a G70 finish pass. All core functionality uses only the Python standard library (Tk), so it can be dropped directly into a AXIS environment.Optional DXF / 3MF import is supported via external libraries.

For example you can: 
 
  1. import an STL as a background reference
  2. Auto create segment points or (recommended) tracing the rotational outline with profile points 
  3. Adding chamfers and radii for finishing details
  4. Adjusting geometry for optimal cutting
  5. Setting machining parameters
  6. Generating G-code
  7. Sending to LinuxCNC/AXIS
