Hi Gang!
I'm a total newbie, so apologies if I ask something blatantly ignorant.
I registered lazycam last week and have been trying to make Gcode files for the parts in Joe's 2006 homebrew CNC machine (see the CNCzone forums for plans and info)
He listed the parts in DWG format, and I've used a couple different programs to convert these to DXF format for LazyCam. I've tried many different methods because the newest version of lazycam makes a big mess out of the import- as if it's finding tons of miscellaneous entities in the DXF files that aren't visible in the drawing programs. After fighting with LC 2.02, I decided to try the 2.0 version- and it worked much more smoothly!
here's an example part: The left inside gantry part of Joe Che'2006 DIY router.
Does anyone have insight as to what LC 2.02 is trying to do that 2.0 isn't?
You guys at Artsoft have really done a great job bringing CNC technology to us hobbyists- Thanks a million for all your efforts.
Cheers, Jim
