Clinical Tip
These are companions, not alternatives. EdgeGlidePath is a single rotary glide-path file (19/variable, FireWire, 300–500 RPM) used in clockwise rotation before shaping; EdgeOne Fire is the reciprocating shaping system whose Primary follows once a glide path to at least #15 exists. EdgeOne Fire also ships its own reciprocating GlidePath file, so choose EdgeGlidePath when you prefer the glide path in rotary mode.
