Re: Puzzle Joint Generator

I know this is an older post. But, are they planning on creating a Gadget for this at Vectric ? I would enjoy and use this kind of Gadget to use. Thanks for any replies.

Showing keystrokes on computer while making screen recordings

Hello everyone, Not sure if this is the place to post this or not. But while I was on the User Group Meeting Live Streams for 2020 there was a presentation being made and it showed the Keystrokes the creator/presenter was using. Someone asked Beki from Vectric about it and she said she would ask so ...

Re: upgrades

Ok, I understand that I would have to backup/export my Toolpath Database and then use the Import Feature to bring the Toolpath Database with my tools that are currently setup into the new version. Then if I am reading this correctly I could just uninstall my older versions and the Vectric Aspire 9.5...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

highpockets, I agree and I have been starting to go through these again and need to work through them. No reason to hate about asking about my machine. With the Live Edge the gentleman has for me the machine will be large enough. There is another guy he uses sometimes that has a 5 x 10 but he is bus...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

highpockets I truly appreciate your honesty and help and being tactful about it. I am going to have to practice more on tracing and do something different for my photo setup. Like I said with my arthritis and shakiness in my hands it is kind of hard to do a trace in the software or using a pencil. B...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

Ok here is a sort of or semi cleaned up image of the rifle trace on the cutting board mat. Not sure if this one works better or not for getting it to correct size. Shaky hands as I said on the trace around rifle and kind of confused on using the Vector Drawing Tools in Aspire. The bitmap trace optio...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

Ok, so I got a traced image on a cutting board mat and the trace may not be the best as shaky hands and used a pencil and it did not wife off to easy. Not sure if this image is giving more information or not. Hard to get a good picture without some shadows with my lighting here in the shop. I for th...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

Thank again highpockets. So when I put the rulers or straight edge with ruler on the poster board with the gun should I just do it with one on the bottom and one on the right or left hand side ? What would be the best way to do that with the rulers ? Also, is there any type of large paper with ruler...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

Ok, I have taken pictures of this rifle against a white poster board and have the actual image of it and the traced out one on the white board. But, for the life of me I cannot get it correct to cut a pocket for it at 1 1/4 inch deep so it fits in correctly. Not sure if it is something I am doing wr...

Re: Looking for some help on a Possible Project

Thanks TReischl and highpockets. Those are some great ideas and I will have to give them a go. Not to good at tracing but hopefully can get close. So, with the live edge piece of wood should I just take a picture of that and trace where the outline is of that ? I ask because I have never done anythi...

Re: Forum problems

I too have had some issues with the Forum but it seems to be alright today other than I tried to message Todd Bailey on a question on Design and Make but it showed him as not being a User on here anymore or something so not sure if he is still here or with Vectric or not.

Re: How to find the "blue cutting outline" in 2dView

I was going to post this answer but had some issues with logging in. I am glad that it got posted as when we first upgraded to Aspire 9 I was wondering where that option went myself or if it was removed.
