You probably need to do the offset in your .dxf file.

I have lot of drawings, it takes time to remake all of them. Is dxf2gcode program that god but dont have off set function ?

[ger21]

I've never used it, but usually simple .dxf to g-code converters don't have any offset functions. They just convert the lines to g-code exactly as they were drawn.
Sounds like you need a real CAM program.

thank you for help!

the solution is to make offset in solidworks and remake gcode. (i will try it next monday on cnc whit mdf )

But some times i plan to make 3d furniture, like dors whit wawes or lines somthing like that. So i have alphacam but mach3 drops a lot of bad lines in gcode and stop at first lines..

i allways get this mesage, and canot try to simulate suting ?:/

Hello,

for 3D engrawing you have to create user define tool.
1. Create geometry define tool
2. Goto Machine - Define tool - User defined.
3. Select geometry which define tool

Or select User tool which is in a default database after instalation .

You can define your own user tool or use the existing tools in the tools library of the software.
