45.5 NC CUTTER PATHS
When we have simple features, paths are easy to generate. These features include,
Typically paths for these will repeat as shown below,
For complex surfaces we want to contour appropriately. These surfaces will almost always be represented with spline patches.
Recall that a spline patch can be represented parametrically
A simple algorithm to cut the surface is shown below.
