I hate a show-off!
Well, a show-off who upstages me anyway
Looking forward to seeing the result, whatever it may be.

Today I've been playing with a new clock design in Gearotic and CamBam. By doing some redrawing of the DXF import from one to the other and making the arcs arcs instead of polylines I've managed to get the number of lines of code for one part down from over 500 to about 50. What kind of 'man' does that make me?

Less of a man...... A real man blunders straight in with little thought, goes about things in an overly complex way with the wrong tools, then refuses to alter the plan and ploughs on regardless through sheer bloody mindedness. Come on now and "man up" and turn that 500 lines of code into 5000
I shall enjoy Devon if this cut finishes. Otherwise it will be weighing on my mind!!!

That's quite easily done - just use trochoidal machining. I did a small job on Friday that involved some deepish slots in aluminium and tried doing it that way and managed to generate over 450,000 lines of code for cutting 650mm length of slot - but at least the cutter didn't snag

Trochoidal milling in Fusion 360 seems to generate enormous numbers of short straight line cuts. Big files...
I live in Devon. Don't know that we want any "real men" disturbing our peace and quiet! And bragging about their shiny new machines. Mine still hasn't even been painted. Still, in our perpetually warm, dry, micro-climate, paint is for wimps.

That's a shame - we're only about 10 miles further on, just the other side of Totnes. A weird little town best described as where hippies go to retire, and open crystal healing shops and cat cafes (don't ask...)
Well, if you happen to be coming down again on one of the many warranty call-outs, give me a shout! I jest - you supply the hobnobs and I'll put the coffee on. No Yorkshire tea in this part of the world.
