Open Vectors & Toolpath Problems

Post by LThomas »

Hi All,

Here is what's on my mind. First off all I am trying to make is a pattern for a Trivet. My dimensions are 7 1/2" X 7 1/2".
I want to put (9) grooves all the way across it, and 3/4" apart in one direction. (Sounds simple enough?)
Well, I'm having problems with open vectors and creating the tool path. I've read posts and tried numerous things, and re-read to no avail. I'm sure its something simple that I seem to be overlooking, but its baffled me for hours now.
I even resorted to looking to see if anyone had a program for making one. (getting tired)
If anyone can help me get the job done, it would be greatly appreciated!
I'm done for the night and goin' to the house. lol

Something like this?
Use Profile Toolpath not V-Carve
