    Check this LINK for a simple way to re-size puzzle slots for different material thicknesses.

    It shows a very easy method!

    Puzzle Slot Re-size
    The file in the above link has now been moved to an unknown location.


    To re-size a puzzle slot, in my progeCAD program, this is how I go about it.
    -choose MODIFY
    -highlight one side of the slot
    -click OFFSET
    -input the DISTANCE TO OFFSET example .125" (if original slot was .250")
    -click where you want SIDE TO OFFSET

    The above will give you a center line for the new slot.

    Then DRAW NEW SLOT around the center line, to desired size.

    Delete the old slot & the center line you drew, which leaves a new slot the size you drew.

    It is easy after you do it a few times.

    That one is part of the dinos font IIRC. You need me to post the font?

    I have the font thanks Jay C.

    Unfortunately I have tried using the dinofonts before but they are a little too rough for my liking. Using the same cutter for the material thickness they still don't seem right. Really they need slots manually put in and the rough vectors cleaned. Layertone has taken 40 hours to clean up this one. I can appreciate the effort after 4 days of working on the ship set I still haven't got upto the sails!!!

    My 3 year old Paleontologist seams to think this is an Allosaurus and not a TRex.:)

    If you are looking for clean ready to cut dxfs, check out www.centracraft.com. Construct'ems cnc projects. Also include good assembly instructions so you can easily put it together when its done.
    T-rex, alligator, insects, ect....

    haha yea assembly without instructions can take longer then the actual machining process!

    I know it did for the Eiffel Tower, as with my router it left wee radii in every corner which needed cleaning up manually

    Here is a video of sketchup model I built from one of the online dxf files.

    Here are some pics of a velociraptor I did for my kids, they have loved it. I scaled it to use 1/2 inch material and to be full size. My daughter took it to school for "show and teach" and it was a huge hit.
