    single part selection from drawing

    If I want to select a single part drawing from a multi-part file drawing in cambam how do i do it and then create the g-code from it. IE ( shark.DXF)

    I want to select just a single body from that file drawing and creat the g-code file from that selection only. Or any multi-part drawing for that matter... thank you guys so far you guys have been very helpful....

    Select the part

    Create a MOP (profile, engrave, pocket etc.)

    Right click on the MOP and select Generate Toolpath

    Right click on the MOP and select Create Gcode File.

    Save g-code file.



    If the part requires more than one MOP, then right click on Machining in the tree view and select Create Gcode File, then save.
