I need my machine to move On a 10 degree line using the x y axis .

I see g codes for this on other systems .

Can Linuxcnc do this?

Thank you,

Jim

Yes, it will probably use the same g code you see for other systems

Which 10 degree angle do you want?

I Want to sharpen a band saw mill blade which has a 10 degree tooth angle.

Will be using a 1/4" Dia. stone in the spindle and following the shape
of the blade.

Then indexing to the next tooth.

I will try g15 and g16 even though they are not on the reference list.

So you want to use polar coordinates? That is very easy with LinuxCNC, just
use the @ symbol to specify the length and angle of the path.
Ex: G1 @1^10 creates a line segment with length 1 at an angle of 10 deg
from the x axis.
See the docs here:

Sure.
G01 X0 Y0
G01 X10 Y1.736

If you want to actually program it in degrees, that can be
done. Also, the advanced G-code extensions in LinuxCNC allow
you to program this with some variables and sin functions.

Yet another way. You can use G10 L2 to rotate the coordinate system.
