Re: My trick for printing to scale from vcarve pro 8.5
I'm sure this will also work for older version of Vcarve Pro... I have been using this method since 2011 with my Aspire 3.504 version... I frequently require a 1:1 printout of vectors which allow me to lay the actual part atop the drawing for fitment and accuracy checks. 1. With the desired Aspire f...

Attempting to scan a 3D object on a flat bed scanner will introduce error of varying degree depending on the distance of the landmarks from the scan head as it passes beneath.
