    Cut2D Drawing Slots Inside a Circle

    Hey guys, need your help.I am using Cut2D and I can't figure out how to insert three oval shapes inside of a five inch circle at 0, 120, and 240 degrees. I was able to insert three ovals (oval slot size is .25 x .75 with a .125 corner radius) inside of the circle, but not as those coordinates. I need the oval slots to face the center of the circle too.Does anyone know how to do that in Cut2D?Thanks for the help,Mike

    In my opinion, Cut2D is ok for generating your gcode, but it comes up short as a drawing program.
    I would recommend using a free CAD program for drawing and import your CAD file into Cut2D.

    Try Draftsight (Free) your life will be sooooooo much easier.
