    Help with finding DWG converter

    Ahoy fellas,

    I recently had to reinstall windows, and me being the forgetful idiot that I am forgot to back up a few things.

    One of them was a very simple DWG or DXF (forget exactly which format it used) that I found linked in a thread on this forum. It converted autocad files to g-code very simply, worked great for simple 2D patterns and things that I can draw quickly in autocad.

    Unfortunately I dont remember the name of it, I was hoping someone else here can help me out and link me to this software again?

    My macro (linked in the previous post) works great if you're using ACAD 2002 or newer.
