My probe design on Thingiverse is normally closed but the inverting circuit makes it normally open. So if you are OK with normally closed you can just leave out the circuit.

Did you look at the probe data file? All of your probe points are close to 0.9mm.
So G-Code Ripper is offsetting your g-code ~0.9mm above the surdace. Your cut depth is .2mm so the bit is...
With G-Code Ripper you can reuse probe data between multiple operations.
Here is the process:
1. Enter the offset between the probe and cutting tool (if there is any)
2. Zero the tool on...
I used the g-code you sent me (via e-mail) and made solid models with CAMOTICS output (from your g-code). The inlay looks fine see the attached picture.

This is a problem with MACH3 and/or the controller board you are using. Other people have reported problems like this. At least one fixed it by upgrading the firmware on the controller.
I don't...
In V0.18 I had some g-code that work with LinuxCNC but MACH can not handle. I fixed it in V0.19 so that the code that MACH cannot use is replaced with something simpler when MACH is selected.

G-Code Ripper will run on Windows XP.
Did you install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) as Jim Dawson suggested?
Yes, it works with Win 10, 64bit.
1. Download the file that ends in "_win.zip" (i.e. G-Code_Ripper-0.17_win.zip)
2. Unzip the file. (right click on it and choose unzip or similar option.)
3....
Thanks
For the design you have shown you can do the following:
1. Set "Scale XY" to 70% in G-Code Ripper
2. Write the probe file by clicking the "Save G-Code File - Probe Only
3. Run the probe Only file...
The algorithm that G-Code Ripper uses to map between the probe points requires that the probe points are in a rectangular grid. For cases like this you can set something outside of the object you...
I don't understand what the issue is...
It sounds like your design tool paths extend to a minimum X value of -0.1 and a minimum Y value of -0.6.
G-Code Ripper can adjust the origin for you if you want it to. To adjust the origin you...
When you open G-Code Ripper it tries to open the file that was open when the settings were saved.
Option 1: Ignore the error and just open another valid g-code file. (G-Code Ripper does not work...
It might be a problem with the g-code. Without seeing the input g-code file I can't tell.
From the F-Engrave web page:
If the windows executable does not work right away install the “Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)”. The program I use to create the Windows...
Did you look in the g-code for feed rate changes?
What feed rate did you expect? :)
The problem is there is no feed rate defined before the first G1 command in your input file. G-Code Ripper has no idea what speed to use so it goes with...
The easiest way to run g-code ripper in Linux is to download the file then type "python g-code_ripper-016.py" in a terminal window. (You need to be in the folder that contains the file named...
Looks like you have it figured out. I hope it turns out good for you this time.
It looks like Inkscape does not like the DXF file format yhat is being exported by your CAD program. You can try adjusting your CAD export settings
No. The source code is readily available at www.scorchworks.com
To bring vectors into LaserDRW you can use the LaserDRW Inkscape extension.

Inkscape can read multiple input file types. You just need to find one that...
Thanks for sending the g-code. Having the file always helps clarify things.
Unfortunatly the file you sent does not support your statements above. The cuts in the g-code you sent start at .0625...
You can use either 'Flip Normals' or 'Add Box' the only difference is that 'Add Box' adds the box. The box helps define an area that will be cleaned up around the design. If you don't use 'Add Box'...
@thunterman, thanks for sending the files. There was a bug in the new cleanup code that was added in V1.59. I have fixed the bug and uploaded a new version of F-Engrave V1.60 to the F-Engrave web...
I have not been able to repeat the behavior you are reporting so I need additional information.
The best way to give me all of the details is to save a g-code file with the "Suppress Comments"...
You might consider making a copy of the post processor files and edit them to fit your need. I am not familiar with the format of Solidcam files but generally post processor files are reasonably...
I think about the potential mirror option sometimes but getting it to work right with the milling style (climb mill vs. conventional) make things complicated. Running the tool path backwards to...
use the -12.500 value.
