Anyone with CAM/CAD could whip u out a program in no time at all. You just need to specify what you want and what tools you have available. A 3/4" ball end mill will have a different tool path than a 1/2" or 1" ball end mill.

Just tell me exactly what radiuses you'd like. It will take less than 3 minutes to make an iges file for that.

The forum won't accept files with the .igs extension so I changed it to pdf which the forum will accept. Change the extension back to .igs once you've downloaded it and it should work. If it doesn't, send me a PM with your e-mail and I'll send them to you.

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
