Hi
I've just started using KiCAD and then processing the gerber files it produces using pcb2gcode (I use Debian Squeeze). This all seems to work brilliantly, except for one small problem that I still haven't solved....
Using the PCB_Edges layer of KiCAD, I can draw the edge of my PCB. I can Plot this and get a gerber file. I can then convert this to a gcode file using pcb2gcode, and the gcode produced would correctly cut the PCB out. BUT, I would really like to leave a few small support breakout tabs around the perimeter of the PCB so that it does not completely come away from the rest of the PCB whilst milling.
Does anyone know how to do this, other than by manually editing the gcode?
