This is awesome. I’m working my way to this slowly with my toolchanger. So I understand correctly, you used the same coordinates for the CAM operation as where the part was printed?
Did you just rely on the printed part staying adhered to the build plate? Or did you secure it in some fashion?
I felt it was worth the risk. As with anything advancement often involves growing pains. I do believe that RRF3 is now much more configurable and capable. Make sure you understand the changes and how they relate to your system before you start. It is not an update that you just install and expect to work.
I went slow I didnt dive right in. I took my working 2.05 config and macros for toolchanger and copied it and then over a couple weekends worked on updating it to 3.1.1. I read through all the release notes, forum posts, and the RRF3 guide. I went through each line and updated and added and clearly (to me) commented what was needed / changed as I went. Once i was confident in the new config I went through the upgrade process 2.05->3.0->3.1.1. All in all it went really smooth. Only small issue for me was the changes to z probe / endstop. In that case I had 2 possible config setups and I tested each one and with a little bit of tinkering I figured it out quickly.
@Phaedrux I had the thought of using F360 for fully integrating CAM and Addative but haven’t dug into using it for slicing for the TC. Stupid work is always getting in the way of my hobbies. That would be the ultimate goal with the TC though. Print the model change tools and machine... Think I’ll use some of the 100sqft of garolite the power company left for me at work to make some sacrificial beds so I don’t machine some nice grooves into my print bed as I start this journey.
