I am trying to make the JPEG below into Vectors so I can machine it. For some reason the program keeps freezing after the last tab where you can pick fine lines and arcs or mostly splines. Any...

Also, does Aspire have the ability to use a 4th axis? For example, could you mill a CO2 car with aspire?

I have MasterCam '18 and MasterCam Quickpart. I only let the students use the Quickpart because it is easy to use. The problem is you are limited to only the art that comes with the program. It is...

I teach at a high school and we currently have MasterCam but it is only available on one computer because of the cost per seat. I can get an educational license for Aspire that would give me up to 40...

That is a great idea! I never thought of doing that. I could essentially double the size of my work space using the 4th axis. I was actually able to divide my sign into two pockets by sketching a...

Have you had any luck making the program?

I tried uploading the file but it won't allow me to. It says invalid file. Even if you produced something relatively close and posted a video I could use that to figure out how to set the tool paths...

Here are some screen shots of the car. I am not sure it gives you enough information. Let me know if you need more.

I did a little research and selected the 3-d hybrid tool path. It seems to give me what I want but it doesn't allow for tabs to be added that I can see. The block of wood is on an elevated holder and...

What I meant by "tie" them together is having the program recognize the areas that were cleared in a previous tool path. I use MasterCam 2017. I do have a 4th axis that I can attach to the cnc router...

Is there a way to tie all of the tool paths together on one part? I made a CO2 car with my cnc router and it turned out fine but it took longer than it needed to. I had to route it on three different...

I was wondering if someone can explain to me the differences between the different operations available when making a tool path? Like what is the difference between contour and pocket? Or the...

So you are saying that I need to draw it as two separate parts or I can divide it later? Is there a tool in the computer program to do so?

I have a techno 3024 router. I would like to be able to mill a sign that is 48" long. Since my router only has a capacity of 30" x24" is this even possible? I was toying with the idea of milling...

What are some of the best fonts to select when engraving in wood? I have tried a few different ones but haven't gotten the best results. With some fonts only part of the letter or words are...

I am using a techno LC series. I have used it a couple other times to make a part that I designed in mastercam quick part. When I used that program there was an option to mirror the geometry. It...

I drew a sign in Inventor 2017 but when I tried to mill it the text and sketch was reversed. Do I have to draw the sign backwards so it comes out milled the correct way? Thanks in advance for any help

Will the same post processor work for a TechnoCNC LC series 3024? I am new to this and find MasterCam very difficult. I do pretty well with Inventor so I was hoping to use it to mill my parts rather...

Hello, my name is Todd. I am a first year shop teacher and am pretty clueless when it comes to using the Techno CNC mill in my room. I have used it a couple of times just to practice. The program I...
