Hi everyone. I’m new to this hobby. I’m trying to produce GCode for my cheap Chinese CNC cutter using Laserweb 4.0.996. I can make GCode for millcut but not for cut outside or cut inside which allows for the diameter of the cutting bit. I’ve watched all the tutorials but really can’t work out what I’m doing wrong. My files are SVG being produced by Inkscape
I cannot see if it generate for not since the gear is clicked, also mind that a 3.175mm but seems a little bit for the spacing in the gear teeth. Try the operation with a more simpler shape or a bigger one
@Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty It generates the pre cutting set up and the finishing off (raise tool) but nothing else. It doesn’t make any difference which part of the gear I try, the result is the same
@Richard_Fisher if you tried with bigger shapes and it does not work then most likely is that that path is broken, meaning not joined and composed of many small ones. I suggest use another app and try with a simple shape. Dxf work better than svg
@Richard_Fisher Hi again Ariel. I’ve just converted it to a DFX file and it seems to be working now. Thanks for your help, I’ll let you know how it goes when I actually cut something. Please ignore my last
