FoamBlade Project Homepage
New Repository
Update: Feb. 2012
After some time, development on FoamBlade has started again.
For this purpose, a new repository was created to host further
development of the FoamBladeSuite.
The repository is located at
https://gitorious.org/foambladesuite.
Further versions of FoamBlade will focus on CAM features like
cut-path processing and generation.
It is also planned that traditional CNC tasks can be done with
LinuxCNC.
To support this FoamBlade will also contain configurations
and adoptions for LinuxCNC.
Try it:
git clone git://gitorious.org/foambladesuite/foambladesuite.git foambladesuite

Note: This one is a bit outdated, since we can parse cut-Pathes from DXF-Files now.
