Debugged a function to mill a cone

Wrote another G code generator function.Given x and y of the cone center axis, z of the bottom and top, topand bottom radius, and a few other parameters like finish quality, Ican mill out a vertical cone. I first rough it out quickly, and thenmill the inner surface to desired quality. It seems to work. I am watching it right now on the webcam, sitting inthe family room. The finishing process with ball mill is tedious, Iset the finishing step to 0.01 inch.i

I do not have the drive that Pete thinks I have. I ran out of those Toshibas (unless one is hiding somewhere). I have a Teco FM50 3 HP single phase drive. It does not provide current or power feedback.

I am not either. I just want to do a good job setting this mill up.
