Re: Size of image-object cut too small using Inkscape, Makercam then Mach 3
Drawing a 1" square in inkscape and bringing it into makercam creates a trace tool path as shown below
Code:
(Generated by PartKam Version 0.05)
G20 G90 G40
(follow path 1)
G0 Z0.5
T0 M6
G17
M3
G0 X0 Y1
G1 Z-0.75 F30
G1 X1 Y1 F60
G1 X1 Y0
G1 X0 Y0
G1 X0 Y1
G0 Z0.5
M5
M30
So the scale in this example matches the svg.
If the first line of your output also reads 'PartKam version 0.05' we are probably talking about the same software.
I would gladly test your svg but with only 1 post you may not be allowed to upload.
btw: it's true inkscape isn't exactly intuitive, my copy of 'The Book of Inkscape' has many bookmarks. On the other hand it's the best free vector graphic software I've tried. The included Gcodetools inkscape extension is a real mess.
Anyone who says "It only goes together one way" has no imagination.
