If I draw objects in Inkscape my machine works but I've had all sorts of little problems trying to get a dxf file to work. The machine moves along the path for a little while and quits.
I thought I would try the dxf2gcode software that Matagami was suggesting but then he said,
"The workflow is similar in that you must select the appropriate layers and have m3s60 (score) or m3s90 (full cut) in post processor before each shape and then combine files to make complete gcode. "
I'm not sure what "in post processor" means. I'm so far outside of my wheelhouse that I've fallen overboard.
I tried to use Edwards method which I think is using a pdf file but still had no success. In Part 8 the screen is out of focus at critical moments and the sound quality makes it hard to understand everything he is saying so I'm missing something I think.
I got the dxf2gcode to work, sort of, but it stops along the way:
Update: Happy, happy, joy! After retrying a few times for some reason it went through the whole path 100%. I'll send it again and see if it finishes again before turning on the cutter and committing to a whole 40 x 60 sheet ($13).
BTW, I supersized my TimSav so it can cut big sheets from Office Depot.
