29-02 Circular Interpolation - Arcs

The purpose of this two part exercise is to practice a circular interpolation, not the actual toolpath.

ò Exercise 29-02a:

In the first part, make a program where all arcs are programmed in the clockwise direction.
Start with the full circle at zero degrees, then program arcs A to H.

ò Exercise 29-02b:

In the second part, program all arcs in the counterclockwise direction.

Start with the full circle at zero degrees, then program arcs A to H.

In both exercises, use the absolute mode of programming and the arc vectors I and J - not radius R.
