I have a machine that takes G-code, it requires a post from the CAM pkg to make it all go 'round. No surprises there. I have a complete post from 1 CAM pkg that works very well, but the CAM itself sucks. I have another CAM pkg that I really like but the post isn't up to snuff, it lacks some macros and other small details that keep it from being 100%.
My plan is to CAM a simple part, run it to verify accuracy, then use that code as the goal. From there I could begin to tweak the other post to spit out code that matches the first post and then I should be good to go right? Or is the magic embedded deeper than that?
I've obviously never gone into post modification more than small touches here and there.
Thanks
EDIT- to be clear, by blend I mean add a chunks of one post file to another.
