MAke a drawing of your model (in 2D) then save it as a DXF (go to pull down window in the "save as" tool bar). Be sure that your drawing scale is 1:1 or you will have an a shrinken, or enlarged part.

If you want g-code you will have to buy CAM software or write your code by hand.
Ditto igor on the DXF thing.www.integratedmechanical.ca
