GearHeads Corner

Hi All:

  Version 2.261 has fixes in it for Gcode output, thanks to Kerry for finding two of the more
important ones, the G43 offset has been repaired, the post file contains a proper example of
how to turn that on or off. ( Just remove the G43H%d from the post file..). An M30 has
also been added to 3d output ( 4th axis m30 was already fine.).

  The program has had a global optimization as I found it was getting quite slow on my system
and Im working on 3d simulation routines so it was time to speed it up, so you should notice it
is quite a bit faster in gear generation. Several other smaller bugs as discussed on various topics
have been repaired as well.

Thx

Hi All:

  Just a status update, I know its been a couple weeks since a release. :)

Im working on simulation code, which is a bit of rocket science it tuens out, but
is necessary for some of my future planning for GT. It also segways into certain
modules Id liek to offer next year. So Ill be a little while before I can release, Ive
found several bugs in the process ( things liek missing text on the sprocket and pulley screens)
and Ill put out a release to fix those as soon as I can complete more internal
consolidation of the simulation code.
  As always, thanks for you patience, and your help.

I hope XMas is going well for everyone,
Merry Christmas,
Happy Holidays,
Great Times,
Good Benders,
