This is in referance to the post by Metalworkz, the POW_MIA 2.crv file. I've tried to download this file but Cut2D won't open it. A notice comes up stating- Unable to open file created is version 4.602
What can I do to open this file, I have some people I would like to give this plaque to. Norm

Hello Norm,

Have you tried to download and open any of the 3 files I posted after seeing your earlier reply to this post? I will post them here to make sure you will find them. I did these files especially for anyone that may want to cut this with Cut2D. One file even has vectors traced for the round feature in the center so it can be cut with 2D even if you can't use the 3D file. I have tested all of them and they will D/L and load into Cut2D. I hope this finally gets you the file you need.

hello all

i retouched a little this project... the letters were to close and i stretched a little them, also the wreath was not the best for 3d model...
i had to wrestling with adobe standards :-(.... their ps file contain some visualbasic like settings, also on the first line in the file they have some settings,,,, this is the main reason some of these not available to import in aspire,,,
the solution try to rename simple way *.ps to *.eps... in most case it will help... the other settings are difficult so if you feel adventorous try it...

i made a complex 3d model of james plaque and i try to put in smaller form... somehow to upload to here...

thanks
viktor

I know this is an old topic but I used the file tonight for a cribbage board. Thank you to the original person that posted this.
