My software is not getting the job done, or I’m not going about it the right way.
I’m new to the world of CNC I recently purchased a small CNC router that runs a trim router as a spindle. My purpose is very single minded the only thing I wish to accomplish is making inlays in wood, these inlays for example are walnut inlayed in maple and they are at lest 1” thick. The problem I’m encountering is I can’t seem to get a good fit the software I’m using to create the vector / plotter file is Corel 12. The G code seems to jerk or leave flat spots. The way I try to make the file is create a ¼ wide line Trace it on outline thus creating two parallel lines which I separate to create two files. Seems like is should work, but its just not coming out clean. I can’t determine if its my plotter file or the G code that’s causing the problem. Now is this a good way of pursuing this problem or dose somebody know of a better way of creating inlay patterns.
