I need help with how to cut a ramp or slope in foam. I need to angle the egdes of my 1" thick foam. Any Ideas?

What do you have for Cam software? That is going to be a 3D cut :(

I only have lazycam that came with Mach3.

You will need to look into other Cam software that can do 3D :( Sorry we are not able to do it at this time.
Thanks

Send me your dxf with what you need and machine post processor type.
you can also just hand code it in short time if just doing a simple slope edge.

I dont have a very big buget, with that in mind what cam programs should I look into?

Depends on what you are wanting to do
For modeling you might look at Rhino about a grand I believe
You might also look at the Vectric software VCarve pro verson 4 has just been released.

you might try freemill, its free, i have designed stuff in google sketchup, and used a free plugin to export a 3d file, then imported it into freemill.
at work right now, so i dont have the names in front of me, but it worked.. i was using it for text at the time.
