Start with your rosette.
Choose a library design or import a closed DXF outline. Check the size, repeat count and shape before applying a touch.
Explore the library FOR ORNAMENTAL TURNERS
Explore the pattern.
Before the cut.
Bring your rosettes, touches and worm-wheel moves into one digital workshop. See how they work together before you take a cut in metal.

FROM AN EDGE TO AN IDEAYour process.
Your process.
A little more visible.
Follow the same decisions you make at the machine, with room to try a different move.
Understand the motion.
Adjust the touch and watch contact. Compare the solved motion with a sine, including RMS error and maximum sampled deviation.
Open sine analysisBuild a pattern worth keeping.
Enter CW and CCW dial moves, set cutter depth and stepover, then preview the cuts. Save the complete setup to return to it.
Try a phase studyTHE SMALL DECISIONS MATTERA turn. A touch.
A turn. A touch.
A fraction of a millimeter.
Use the numbers from your machine. Each entry is a worm-dial move between cuts; direction stays explicit. Cutter angles and cutting depth determine the simulated line width, with inches and metric readouts together.
Keep the rosette fixed while you explore the touch. Keep the motion when you save a pattern. Know what changed when you try again.
Step into the workshopBEFORE YOU BEGIN
A few useful details.
Currently in private preview.
Made for exploring ideas at the bench.
Do I need Rhino to use the web builder?
No. The browser version runs the motion and pattern calculations without Rhino. You can export an outline from your CAD software as a closed ASCII DXF and bring it into the rosette library.
Can I use my own rosettes?
Yes. Import a closed planar DXF outline, confirm its units and spindle center, then check its repeats. The source file stays unchanged. Imported outlines are sampled geometric approximations.
Does the preview guarantee a perfect cut?
The preview models geometry and contact numerically. Sine analysis reports sampled error; it does not prove a perfect physical sine. Material behavior, tool wear and machine clearance still need checking at the machine.
How do I get access?
The hosted workshop is being prepared for an invited preview. Invited members will use their own username, verified email and password. Public registration and paid plans are not open yet.
