I cannot seem to get Tool Compensation to work.
Can anyone tell me how I can have Pycam compensate for tool Diameter ?
At the moment whatever I do the tool is always symmetric around the path where it should be at the outside edge.
Thanks

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
No problem, I since movedon to dxf2gcode which worked great so I did not have to deal with pycam config problems. So the above issue was resolved using dxf2gcode.
I have STL files I need to CNC and that I need pycam for, so I will post it in another topic.

Sorry for forgetting your question!
Where exactly did you experience an issue? With a 2D model? Maybe you can share a screenshot?

If the issue is resolved outside of pycam, then it is not really resolved in pycam :(
I would be happy, if you could find the time to send a screenshot. Thank you!
