      Hello,

      I try to create such easter art: http://weburbanist.com/2010/05/22/insanely-intricate-eggshell-art-by-franc-grom/. I will create a 3D-model of a shell with holes in Blender.

      I have no knowlegde in CNC. Question to the experts: Is it possible to create coordinates to automatic mill-cut on the real shell using this robotic arm?

      Best regards,
      Thomas

        Hi Thomas,

        In this right moment I’m not sure if anyone did a software for Thor that could perform a task like that one.
        In the other hand, I’m afraid of the accuracy and precision that those pieces could need. In my Thor (which has no feedback sensors) I have at least 0.5 degrees of error in each articulation…
        I use to be optimist with Thor, but I think that maybe this kind of task is too much for the current state of Thor.
        Anyway, maybe with the feedback sensors and a nice control software it could be done!

        Hope it helps!
