    slddrw to dxf

    I don't have Solid Works, just eDrawings. Is there a way to convert slddrw parts into dxf or something that can be converted to g code?

    2 options.

    Buy SolidWorks or pay someone with SolidWorks to do it.

    I could probably get my customer to save the files as .dxf. Will I then be able to convert them to g code? How do I do this? Actually is there a tutorial/video/book that explains step by step how to do this?

    To convert dxf to g-code you will have to do math and hand code OR buy CAM software OR pay someone else to do it.
