Im looking for good free nesting software.
So far I have tried unsuccessfully;
MyNesting (Log In Issues)
AngelBlade (Installation Error?)
Please leave any that you have used and liked...
The issue;
Assuming that our current spoil board set up is inconsistent as far as even level goes, and as a result the bit drags when it travels around the stock. So its cutting lines 1/4 in deep...
Every step of the way seems to have a little hiccup with CNC lol.
So Ive got my first completely nested project and all the tool paths set up. I have ran three sheets of plywood and the same...
So when I set up my RPM and IPM in vcarve is that whats actually being used when cutting?
Were using a shop bot, and the guy who primarily will be operating it was telling me it was running 2k...
So what Im doing is digitizing patterns that will be used to manufacture wood framing for furniture, but first I will be doing the patterns that are used to eventually knife cut the fabric. So Im not...
Do CNC machines and software actually recognize real curved lines? Or are they just incremental inputs of short lines to make up a curve.
Im digitizing patterns and my curves are just a bunch of...
What are the advantages of SVG vs DXF?
Also I dont see an option to save as DXF from Inkscape, will I have to use a format converter?
So this is what Im looking at now.

I read this solution online but didnt really see any difference when messing with the different settings.
is there something...
My company wants me to make DXF files for all of their fabric and wood frame patterns.
Im using the VCarve image tracing right now to see if its an efficient work around for way more expensive...
I cant actually, the file itself is property of my company and they are their designs. Dont want to get myself in trouble somehow lol.

Trying to cut some fairly basic shapes in 2D.
My dog bones arent seeming to cut the entire way. Is it just the way it looks, is my tooling not right?
...
So I'm noticing that there is no 'Flute' option for tools in Vcarve.
Would I have to plug in the tool information myself for a custom bit?
or will using the generic .5in Endmill work with my bit...
Lars Christensen is a great teacher for learning the basics of CAD/CAM
You're going to have to put some hours in to get started.
I took a year of CAD in Highschool ten years ago, and even...
I work for a furniture manufacturer and we are transitioning from all hand cut frames and fabric to digitizing the existing patters and using CNC for the cutting to speed up production.
I have a...
