Re: Open (i think) design for a parallel robot (reprap may be interested)
I was only thinking of the 3dof machines for the glue-gun application as
opposed to the 6dof stewart platforms. As near as I can tell, the transforms
for those don't have singularities, but I could be

From a Machinists view and knowing basically what is required for general machining. The Stewart platform, although clever and innovative would have to be built on a massive scale to even be adequate

Re: Free Download at Hobbing.com''''''''s Gear CAD Library
No it has to reside in C:\Gear to work, - THEN it will generate the library.
Inside W2K it can't make the folder C:\gear, you have to do this and put the exe file into this.

Re: Open (i think) design for a parallel robot (reprap may be interested)
I'm curious about the Stewart platform, and what kind of actuators might be

My programs make a library and have undercut geometry that users can see in graphics and read undercutting information by numerical data.
