Hi (new to cnc)
I use a laptop and a desktop for VCarve pro
Can I keep the tools.tools_db file in Dropbox so it syncs automatically?
If I have to copy it manually do I need to copy tools.tools_db.vectric each time?
What is tool.tools_db.vectric anyway?
Thanks,
Rob.

Re: tools.db in Dropbox
The .vectric file is the backup of the .tools_db file that is made automatically when you install/upgrade VCarve. You don't need to sync it between computers.
I used to run with a central database accessed by two different computers and that worked fine. I can't see why DropBox syncing wouldn't work and I'm sure I remember people saying they're doing it.
