Part to Gcode

Can some one please make Gcode from this drawing to make the plate? I will certainly appreciate it. They are absolute values from Point 0,0.. I don't know if the arc would be I,J moves or Radius moves . Thank you so much. Ray

For L1, if you're moving from Y0.5 to Y 2.5, why is the dimension 2.003 instead of 2.000?

I'm sorry for letting that get away without explaining it. The measurements on the drawing are not exact but the ones listed under Absolute: are what I want to use. When I drew it, I didn't enter each measurement I just did a quickie with the mouse. Thanks...Everything is located from 0,0

You left out a lot of details. Feed speed, depth, tool size....
I used cutter comp, for a .25 tool diameter, and .125 deep. For a different diameter tool, change the P value after the G41 to the tools radius.

Ger21, thanks for the assistance. You won't beleive this but I had just finished a modified drawing and was just about to post it when your message came in. Here it is. I need the Arc and I can probably do the next line. Thanks again. I just haven't got the hang of IJ yet.

How do I show Gcode to make this arc please? I donot know about I J moves or if that is the way to do it. From X3.5 Y2.75 to X1.5 Y0.50 with Radius of 2.4 inches. Thanks in advance. Ray

Thank you guys for your assistance. I got input also from Yahoo Group for Mach..and decided to go with the G2 and I J moves. Appreciate your help. PS-Ger21, I dont know exactly why but your code didn't work with Mach2, it was something about Radius to end of arc... Appreciate your help though. Ray

Your IJ mode is set to absolute, the code I gave you was incremental.
