How a button is made

How a spice mill is made

When this ball is rotated, it can be clearly seen how an optimal cut is achieved by reversing the tool alignment.

Another example from practice.

In GrblGru 'bar mode', several components are manufactured from a single blank.

Examples from the carpenter's workshop

To achieve ideal cutting conditions, this lathe was equipped with pneumatic positioning of the

Turning tool installed.

GrblGru handles the calculation of the G-code and the control of the pneumatic valves.
