Welcome to the The Garage Journal Board forums. MO-Hacker November 10,amTerms Of Service. In my order of concept to design to manufacture is Inkscape Sheetcam Mach3 Usually with Inkscape I can get some pretty good results. By chance have you ever used in vinyl cutting programs? DWalls November 8,pm 4. ДЄny pros or cons to the program? Can I still design parts? DWalls November 8,pm 2. You can be precise with inkscape too, just takes a little creativity using guidelines and snap. As Dicky said F is a great program but it is way too much for plasma, Qcad is probably a better alternative if you are going to be cutting parts that need to be precise. If you try it you will be amazed how much simpler it is to work with. For tool path generation sheetcam is hard to beat, it just flat out works. I can export a file designed in inkscape, import it to sheetcam, run tool path, post it, load into mach 3, zero my machine and hit cycle start, faster than I can open fusion on a good computer.ДЇusion is a good program, but for 2d, overkill. I started out using Fusion which in my opinion is a feature rich program, but for what I do, not necessary.

There are some not so well known features that by reading the manual or watching videos you can figure out. In my limited and growing experience with sheetcam, I like the fact that it is NOT web based storage or cloud storage of your files. Sheetcam is only used for toolpathing you can nest parts too. There are allot of people on here that can help also once you decide which way you are going to go. Start off with this one and see what you think, I believe they have allot of good videos on their channel.

To me sheetcam was easy to learn I looked at fusion but I already knew how to get the drawing in my vinyl program so I only had to learn sheetcam and there are allot of good videos on youtube. Inkscape, I have, but only as far as opening an image, tracing into a path and exporting it as a dxf. This should tell you whether the line is an error in the CAD file in which case it can be selected and deleted.No on the vinyl cutting programs. I have searched these forums to find out why any ideas? I just only started having this problem recently and it will drive me crazy till I figure it out lol. I have used this to remove things I forgot to remove from the drawing I saved. Instagram phishing redditДЄs long as the layer of layers are unchecked they will not be in the plan or the G-code when you post process the plan. If you add more to that layer name they will disappear when you add them to that named layer. There is a small box with a check in it next to the new name, uncheck that check and the line will disappear. Then it will put that new name in the 'Layers' box. Another trick I have used in SheetCam to remove things I don't want, using the contour function move the mouse to the line you don't want and click on it.

You do not have access to view or download this file. It appears to contain a vector rectangle and an embedded bitmap which is probably the image you want to cut.Privacy Terms. I personally prefer to trace over the image in cad. Inkscape and CorelDraw for instance have tracing functions but to be honest the results aren't that great. There are programs that can convert from bitmap to vector. This is easy to convert to machining code. For instance a line is stored as 'draw a line from here to there at this thickness'. Vector images however are made up of instructions. The problem is that the image does not contain any information about how that drawing is constructed. For instance a line is just a row of dots. The dxf file format does allow both but SheetCam will ignore any bitmaps.Д«itmap images such as jpg,gif etc are made up of colored dots.
