Some Gcode generating programs

[blackburn mark]

hi jonathan.... with regards to your XL pully g-code gen :) i was wondering if you could mod it (you gave the impression you could change it whilst eating a kebab n watching telly :)

iv ground an engraving tool to cut my tooth shape (sincroflex 2.5) and thats cutting well enough to give it a whirl
its a 2.5mm pitch with 0.7mm deapth.... im looking to plunge in to my pully from the top takeing two cuts per slot

i know your a busy dude so no problems if you cant fit it in

Here it is (written in the car on the way back from grandparents, had to wait til now to get internet)... send me the Gcode if you want before running it and I'll check its not done anything too silly. Should be ok though...

PulleyCalc4.zip

I've included an example Gcode file with the numbers you gave. Let me know how it goes.

I couldn't look it up at the time, so left it so you could enter the distance between the pitch diameter and pulley surface. For T5 you want to enter 0.5mm.
