Save crv file
How do I save a VCP file as something like a jpeg? Basically I do the design, but then want to send it to a layman for them to preview and approve.

Re: Gallery Of Machines
My machine is a Red Sail 1313 used only for 5mm thick polypropylene with sheet size 1m x 1m. I cut parts to make dog boxes for cars - sides, floor, roof, and weld it all together.

Re: Strange toolpath repeating.
I guess I can do a very simple square and compare the Gcode by eye, there can't be many lines of code for a single pass?
