General Mach Discussion / Line text vs pockets How???
« on: November 26, 2015, 06:57:39 PM »
I've been trying to cut some simple line text on wood text but the only way I have so far is by cutting pockets. I don't have a lot of room and pockets take a long time. The Lazycam Manual says tha this subject is covered in a tutorial but I haven't found it yet

Please help

Randy

Hi Chris,

I posted once before just to vent my frustrations. Here ya go with my intro.

I'm a Newbie and a senior with a background in mine engineering/operations and several years as a corporate safety officer.I'm now retired and spend a lot of my time kayaking, making Greenland Kayak Paddles and Native American Style Flutes. I live in Nanaimo BC and have had my CNC machine for several months now. Despite setting up the small machine only took minutes I just cut my first item yesterday and another today. It's taken a long time and a lot of frustration but I'm starting to get the hang of it. Fortunately drafting and graphics we part of a long past life but helped a lot in understanding the software which was my major challenge.

Thanks,

That's helpful. I think I'll start over again.

I'm so new I don't know what to do except to say that I'm extremely frustrated. I have had my CNC for a few months now and have yet to get the software working for me. Mach 3 seems to be OK but I can't seem to get Lazy Cam pro working for me - I'm having trouble with Pro license. I've downloaded but when I try to extract it, it wan't a paddword for the Lecense and I've tried everything I can think of. I did manage to get a "dat" file on a newer computer than the old XP unit I have the CNC hooked up to and pasted the "dat" file in the MACH 3 folder but - nothing.

I want to cut Pockets (simple text) you'd think that was easy. HELP ME PLEASE>

I've never been on a Forum like this so that's a frustration for me too. Not being able to TALK to someone who can walk me through my problems. Also being unfamiliar with this I may never find any responses so I'm anticipating more frustrations.
