why woudt you define a cone cutter in the tool table

the Gcode is produced by a CAM system si it is to define there
only the Discribtion is to be enterd and the diameter

Sorry, but you can't.
(And LinuxCNC wouldn't know what to do with the data if you could)

The graphical preview only shows the tool centre point path anyway, so you don't lose much.

Thanks Guys

When I set back and think about it, it doesn't make any difference.

Thanks again
