How to create a closed, interior vector based off of overlap
I have a question about creating closed contours based off of vectors that are overlapping/crossing each other. Say for example, the venn diagram attached, where originally each circle was a single vector. If I wanted to do something like "pocket" out the middle, interior area, is there there a func...

Rookie: just want to cut out a profile
(transferring this from accidentally posting it in the gallery) I just want a workflow to export an STL from Solidworks to Cut3D, and have it cut out a simple profile, without unnecessarily routing out huge sections as pockets. Basically as a simplified example, imagine I have a square piece of plyw...

Re: Rookie: just want to cut out a profile
Ah, appreciate the g-code, but the circle was more of an analogy. So what if the "circle" is some complicated shape, or had interior cuts, etc. There's the "Cut Out Path" option, but that's no quite getting it for me. *See attached* for another example of random shape. I don't want it to raster-rout...

Okay feel free to forward me to any other posts about this, but I couldn't find any.
