From computer to CNC path

[Mr Ron]

There is a free AutoCAD macro that will generate a 2d g code also. I use it a lot !

CncPath macro

It says it's good for 30 uses, but resets over and over.

Thanks for the lead.

If you need help, feel free to ask.

I use it to make quick 2d outline programs. I offset my shape half my tool dia. I draw a small circle at x y 0.0.

When using it, you can't have any gaps or intersecting lines or it will stop.

When I get a chance, I'll post a couple screen caps.

Thanks for the offer. I'm still a few months away from needing software, but when I am, I'll take you up on it. Happy New Year.

Duh! What did I do? Old geezers like me don't understand computers like the young guys. I've finally learned to handle simple jobs, but the learning curve is a lot longer for me.
