WARNING: WIP

A scripting language inspired by OpenSCAD for making quick and dirty CNC programs. Want to make a quick set of counterbored holes? Here's an example:

``` boardthickness = 12.2mm; boardheight = 812.5mm - 6.35mm/2; board_width = 5in;

cutterdiameter(6.35mm); material('BALTICBIRCH_PLYWOOD');

comment('Holes for threaded inserts for ceiling brackets'); for y in linspace(1.5in, boardheight - 1.5in, 2) { for x in linspace(3/4in, 3.25in, 2) { comment('Counterbore'); circlepocket(x, y, radius=6.35mm, depth=3mm); comment('Threaded insert hole'); circlepocket(x, y, radius=4.75mm, depth=boardthickness); } }

// Hole which the LED strip wires pass through material('ALUMINUM'); comment('LED strip wire hole'); drill(groovex + groovewidth / 2, boardheight - 1mm, boardthickness); ```

Then: gcad -o output.nc input.gcad

Done!
