Of course, the hex shape is a standard feature. <a href=\"https:\/\/kentechinc.com\/kipware-programming-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KipwareM<\/a>\u00ae can also mill square, rectangular and round bosses using the conversational menus and non standard shapes through the SketchPad. But his question got us wondering about easily programming the milling of pentagons, heptagons, octagons and so on. We thought the answer would be to create a conversational, fill in the blank menu that can quickly and easily create G code milling for a figure with any number of sides, so we did.<\/p>\n<p>The video below will illustrate the use of the newly released multi sided milling menu, now a standard menu in <a href=\"https:\/\/kentechinc.com\/kipware-programming-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KipwareM<\/a>\u00ae<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Easy CNC CAM for Milling with KipwareM\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wzDvt53n2sE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The form allows the user to define a shape with any number of sides, by just entering the diameter of the circumscribed circle and the required number of sides.
