First piece finished

Post by Richiemac »

Purchased cut 2 d the other day and ran this off the following day, yes it is that easy to use! Took the image off the net, drew around it in autocad 2009 lt and took in to cut 2d as a dxf file and away you go................its a handle for my daughters outdoor play house. Already considering cut3d or better now !!
Definately the best few euro's i've spent in a while . I also just figured out that i can edit the g code files together to facilitate tool change so now i have 24 tools to play with instead of loading paths seperatley ..............great value :D

Cheers John, material is 304 grade s/stl. All done with a 6mm ball nose. Took about 25 mins i recall as i slowed everything down a bit and flooded with coolant. Its only 70mm diameter with the profile relieved away outside about 1 mm deep. I could cut it much quicker with a solid carbide cutter but for a one off, well whats the rush............Richie :)

Very nice, you will find that Cut2d is very addictive and powerful tool. All the software from Vectrics is well worth the money. Can't get any better. I have searched for quite awhile and nothing compares to theirs.
HAPPY CUTTING
Mike
