Gimp is also free. It's a true 3D Modeler/Animation software.
You're probably confusing it with Blender. GIMP is an image editor.

Doug, can you post an example of what you would like to have in Cut2D? Post a snapshot of a WordArt example you would like to produce in Cut2D.

Re: Job size resolution

Does this happen only on this model?
Are the previous models still correctly carved with the version of the file including this model?

Re: Modeling Resolution

I can't test as I don't own Aspire anymore (I now own Vcarve), but I'd bet that if you import a low resolution stl in a high resolution project and begin sculpting it, your modifications will occur at high resolution. Easy to test.

Re: Modeling Resolution

John,

AFAIK, you're right.

See this post and download the doc:

As Tex-Lawrence, I don't know how to find the modeling resolution of a component in Vectric software. Maybe in Meshlab for stl, but I never gave it a try.

Hi,

Did you ask your Stepcraft seller?

From the comments of the Youtube video:
This Video explains how to install the Stepcraft-Post Processors on the new Vectric V11 software.

Re: Sanding discs

I think it's worth experimenting. Could be useful. With a palm sander, you control the pressure you're applying. Which is not the case with a CNC, which controls coordinates. So you'll probably have to use a very small path depth to avoid applying too high a pressure, as it will only be limited by t...

Hi Steven,

I don't see a link to v1.18. Is it me or did you forget it?

Obviously, one of us needs some coffee :D

Re: Drill chuck for PorterCable 7518 router

What about fire? My thoughts: Why not cut the shaft off to a shorter length and put straight into the collet chuck? Jim That's probably much better. But these bits are not balanced for high rotation speeds. If your spindle can't run at a very low speed or if you forget to slow it down, be prepared ...

Re: laser power and speed test file

Have a look at these files: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:728579/files What do you mean by a "test file that will work in Aspire" and "A gcode extension file would be great"? If you get a gcode file, Aspire won't be necessary and if you get an Aspire readable file, you'll be able to generate g-c...

Re: Hardware or Software Issue?

You wrote "the second side was perfect" but it doesn't match your crv file: it seems the outer profile is not the same or we don't see the right side.

Could you post a picture of each side of the project, showing the whole board?
