I am hoping to be able to make some 2d 3d files from bmp and jpg pictures.I was able to try artcam head wizard
and it looks like it might work.
Scanned a face then produced a 2d file and set up a tool path,before you set the tool path it produces a *.art file which is accepted by no one like the vetric package,so i was wondering if one could convert an *.art file to something else,or am i using the wrong program.

Hi,

I don't have the expertise to respond to your question directly but I think you would quickly find very helpful people on the mach1mach2cnc forum(s) an excellent site and on the shopbot forum(s), another very good one.

Export an .stl from ArtCAM. But if you're already in Artcam, why not create the toolpaths in ArtCAM?

You're right and i have imported a bmp face ran it throught artcam created a toolpath and saved it .
I just felt more comfortable in cut3d by vetric.
It seems simple enough and is it,will this cut out ok and look like something
