Thank You Chip!
Yeah, I contacted ViaCad about the curvature turning to lines. I was told that I would have to go with Shark FX @ $1795 to avoid that....WAY to steep for a hobby...being all I need is something that can do a few curves in 2D...
So, I'm going to have to search for something else....I'm sure the $100 I wasted on the ViaCad and time spent to learn what I did won't be the last in this journey..
SO, does anyone have a suggestion where I may look to find a program that will do 2D with curves and work with Mach3 Lazycam Turn? Really don't need anything high end, just do what the above files show, w/a few curves. The files posted is as complicated as I have need for. No milling, just lathe in mind. Nothing more. I won't be designing transmissions for a dump truck....
Fellas, I really appreciate your time! It means more to me than you know!
Thanks!
