Hi all, I have to say you guys inspire me!!

I have just brought a new Flat bed CNC so that I can branch out into making models like the files that are posted here. So I have started by downloading a Raptor and trying to import it as a DXF,

This is proving to not be that easy though :-( The way I have done this in the past is put all the bits in to correl draw, colour them red and then use a program that takes the dxf in red and converts it into a woodwop file to run on the cnc. I seem to be having loads of problems though with the scale not being right, multiple lines one under eachother and so on.

Does anybody else happen to use woodwop and happen to have an easy guide into converting these files so they can be used? What I also did was looked at the slots that will efectivly fit on the edge of the wood and scale the drawing up untill the slot is the same width as the required thickness.

Any help would be amazing!!

Have you tried HERE

Small proyect to share with all

I'm wondering if any one could help me out. I'm trying to make a sign for a buddy, but I am having a heck of a time getting these two images converted decently. (I really need to spend some time trying to master Inkscape)

I only need the tractor and combine, not the background stuff. They're for a big welcome sign he wants to put at the end of the driveway. We'll be plasma cutting it.

Thanks for any help anybody can give me!!!

Here is a quick one not very god I'm afraid.

Thanks! They're a darn sight better than what I came up with! And thanks for the extras you included.

I'll see what he says, although after I posted my plea for help he started talking about changing the design...again. :tired:

Ugh...sometimes (always?) working for friends or family is much harder than working for strangers!

The wood burned image has been altered slightly to be more proportional and supplied in a dxf file. Id like to make some plaques and hope chest or something with it. I have aspire but Im still quite new to it. Any help I can get would be great.
