There are definitely methods around writing gcode, I'm pretty sure no one does that anymore.

    On the flip side, does the machinist HAVE to have the gcode, or are they capable of reading shop drawings and machining parts that way on the CNC?
    I'm glad to hear there are ways around the code though, I'm going to have to do some more research and see what I can find. This is still in the beginning stages and I'm just intel gathering. Thanks for the info bro, I owe you a beer!

    Having Sunday Brunch Buffet with the wife and kid at the Inverness Hotel. Crab, oysters, smoked brisket, prime rib, etc. It's so nice to be able to sit down, eat with my wonderful family with a bottomless cup of decent coffee. What are you doing?
