Hello
I am trying to come up with a way to generate code for the 5 axis router I have built. Has anyone seen or used the 5axismaker project; www.5axismaker.com/software/. It looks like you use Rhino and Grasshopper to make tool paths for Mach 3 via Fusion 360. Problem is there is no postprocessor for LCNC and I think Grasshopper is too steep a learning curve for me.
Any thoughts
Thanks
Aaron

Editing the default LinuxCNC Post Processor for Fusion 360 is pretty straight forward, the only thing you need is the Post Processor Training Guide from Autodesk. Otherwise you could twick the 5AXISMAKER post for Fusion360, so that you only need to look at some little things.
The training guide can be found here cam.autodesk.com/posts/posts/guides/Post...Training%20Guide.pdf

To start you can look at John Saunders AKA NYCCNC videos on Fusion360 Post, i'll put the link below
