First, understand I am a NUBIE and CNC, so show patience pls. I have valid student copy of AutoCAD 2014 that I
am using for CAD program. So far I have limited all attempts to load a dxf file to 2d type drawings. Simple
objects such as rectangles with fillets and holes or slots. Some will load into lazycam just fine and show toolpath,
others appear to fail loading process and no image or toolpath is displayed. I have tried various things with
AutoCAD, but none offer any indication to nature of problem. Being new, can 3D drawings be loaded into
lazycam to ultimately produce G-code for mach3. I have searched for documentation on lazycam, but appears
none exists, and product appears unsupported. May look for substitute CAM software, such as Rhino in
future. Trying to keep within my budget, and purchase of hardware motors,encoders,drivers.etc has passed
my anticipated mark, so project implementation may take a little longer than expected. Any help with
understanding why some load and others don't would be greatly appreciated.
