Re: CNC Software
Hi Marc, I use VCarvePro6 from www.vectric.com in the UK. I highly recommend it for it's functionality and ease of use, it eliminates the need for using CAD and I also use it as a design platform. A little pricey but worth every cent! I use Mach 3 to drive my machine, also a simple interface.
Cheers Gwyn

Re: CNC Software
Hi john
Vcarve will convert the things you design into a Gcode which is what mach3 reads.

Re: CNC Software
Hi riche,
found it and works tx.
I have one question if I made a design in Vcarvpro and save it for mach3 it seems that the design looks like a stamp in size and the CNC looks like working on the spot. I need a design 12.6 cm width and 8.6 cm height and the cnc makes it as big as a stamp ?
Am I mistaken ?
Solved
I needed to change the processorcode there are differend outputs for Mach3

Re: CNC Software
I assume more than a year down the line this has been sorted? hehehe
IF NOT - what i have found - using Aspire and VCarve - when i take an existing file and change the units i.e. from Inches to mm the scale is totally messed and I get what you have experienced. I haven't tried to carve this as you can pick up the discrepancy with the scale along left and top edges.
