Conversational CAD CAM

No promises.

yep no stress. hopefully as time goes on people will test this and use it. just would be a waste if it never got used. But i have 7 cnc machines myself that are getting the conversational stuff and a general upgrade of linuxcnc. and it's worth the time just for me so not too fussed if no one else uses this. machines are getting pretty cool now. with all the auto tool measure stuff it all makes a massive difference how fast jobs get done. and auto tool measuring means that i don't get the chance to make mistakes with tool offsets and they always stay loaded so i don't do any hacks. cause the fastest option is clicking measure and walking away to carry on programming on cam

cheers

Yeah, not possible, and not because of this or anything here, not sure if you bumped into a post some 2 months ago where i mentioned the government literally destroyed my business (paid for china machines for whoever applied for that grant) so now i have 5 or 6 new machines collecting dust and a new shop i have no use for.
I hate to say it, but i will have to become a youtuber or start training schools, be it online or live, ... or start doing flooring as this has gone from 2-4 euro per sq meter two years ago, to 11-14 euro now! And of course, i am bloody good at it, but .... oh hell no.
5:54AM so i am off to bed, will report back whenever i get a chance to test, been preparing some stuff for 6 days ... yotuber

YouTube will be lucky to buy you a carton of beer a month but if you use it to promote your business that can be a good business. You need a business plan to put it together... which means you have some hard thinking ahead!

That kind of sucks. Maybe in a few months you can take up servicing all these "new" Chinese machines when they start breaking down. But in the interim sounds like your screwed.

Our "businessmen" used EU subsidies to buy machines they didn't need at all, only to put them up for sale after a year or two... This is one big fraud where thieves make money and honest people lose.
