Days of Christmas projects

Post by Wdp67 »

Hi all,
I downloaded the trial version of VCarve desktop and the day 2 project of the wine glass holder. It will not let me create a toolpath for my machine using the Mach3 inch Arcs PP.
I thought that the free files are supposed to work with the trial version?

Thanks

Walt

I am not at home right now, at work. It gives the message that I cant create a toolpath, and i should work with the included files in order to make a toolpath or something to that effect.
I will post after work and let you know.

Hi Wd67

I have checked the files to make sure I could output toolpaths for the Wine Bottle Holder and all worked as expected. The Trial version will only allow you to toolpath the files as they are in the file when you open them, you will not be to create your own vectors and toolpath those in the trial version.

If your issue is not related to this, please let me know and i will help sort this for you
