I downloaded it and compiled it, it looks promising. Are there any English docs yet ?

Regards.

Your project looks awesome olli!

We (me and Dan Heeks from Heeks CNC) are currently working on a new cam prohect with very professional algorithms for 2.5D milling, like restmilling and plunge moves, and so on.

I had a quick look this morning and it looks promising:

o Having a clean build environment it compiles just with few warings
o Loading a large 2.5 D object (1400mm x 420 mm x 8mm) it generates the gcode very quickly where pyCAM needs endless hours
o Tabbing support (leave small tabs to hold the workpiece on it's place)
o MTEXT support (from DFX)

So this tool needs urgently further testing by me :D

I will contact the owner of the reporsitory and ask him if he would like to push the project forward (e.g. adding more features).

Regards
Michael
