    SolidCam for SW Post Processor GRBL

    I'm super new to all of this, so thanks for having me, and please bare with me a bit.

    I recently built a mysweety 3018 with candle v1.1 GRBL controller. I have some understanding of solid cam and solid works, enough to model my parts and passably program tool paths. I don't really have any understanding of post processors and the underlying machine language.

    Unfortunately after trying two post processors that were supposed to work, neither produces a code that will actually machine the parts. One resulted in candle showing it was working on the computer, but the machine was only making the smallest xy movements, much slower than what the program showed with no Z motion. The other output N-code.

    I was wondering if someone might know of a post processor for solid cam to grbl that will allow me to actually machine parts?

    Any help would be appreciated.
