Machining, model generation, AI anyone else exploring this area
« on: September 06, 2026, 04:40:31 pm »
Hi,
 Wondering if anyone else is applying AI to their hobby endeavors. After describing what I want as a part I said I am having trouble visualizing, could you provide a blue print...

AI helping in creating toolpaths for oddly shaped in term of parts. An example - cam in terms of lift and duration rather than drawing geometry in CAD.

I know what I want to do when I wander into shop but have focus issues, if I discuss what I am plannings AI remembers in a way I can use

1. SAW TO LENGTH  (band saw)  --  do this now
       Bought:     12.00  x  6.00  x  1.00     (X x Y x Z, inch)
       Keep:       Y = 6.00   Z = 1.00
                   Do not saw width or thickness. Face Z on the mill.
       Cut X to:   8.79
                   = PLATE_X 8.750 + 2 x STOCK_EXTRA 0.020
                   (program cut-to-length when STOCK_X is blank)
       Do not go shorter than 8.79. If the saw wanders, leave 8.88
       (8-7/8) and set STOCK_X = 8.88 in ArcPlateApp before Generate.
       Square the cut to the 6.00 edge. Deburr. Mark one end LEFT.
       Drop:       ~3.21 from the 12.00 bar. Keep or scrap.
       Mill will true both ends in 01 plate_01_sawn -- that is the
       X-index for the vise flip. Do not chase sawn-end finish.
