ckochandClaude Opus 5.5 95ad4d25de Software: pattern player, web page with a design library, GRBL tools
- python3 -m sandtable web: local web page to play designs from a library of
  27 built-in patterns, upload .thr or .svg, pause/skip/stop, jog and calibrate.
  Reconnects by itself when the USB cable comes back.
- Plays .thr files and built-in generators with an erase spiral between them,
  constant ball speed, host-side homing on stock GRBL 1.1 (Uno + CNC shield),
  FluidNC for the ESP32 board.
- Home switch guard: patterns never press the switch, so a press means lost
  steps and stops the machine at once with an alert.
- lineart.py turns SVG line drawings into one continuous path.
- Tests against a GRBL simulator.
