Re: Tiling question

Marcel I took your advice and tried vertical tiling since my x axis is too small for the 44 " project. I took and spun the whole thing 90 degrees and tile it at 14.75" and waaaaall ahhhh.

thanks to everyone who contributed....it takes a village sometimes

happy carving

Re: Tiling question

Your new design looks much better, Steven, obviously, has the right - though somewhat fiddely - solution for you, but I (lazy designer) wondered: is this design not easier to do with 3 horizontal panels ? One with the 'bar & grill' text, one with 'one - 80 - six' and the bottom with 'marquand mo'? ...

Re: Tiling question

Do you want to tile horizontally or vertically ? What I see is a bit odd (sorry). The top text seems correctly set on a circular vector, the bottom text not. The 'U' in the bottom text seems a bit out of position. Also the two circles are not totally parallel / offset. Is this the good file at all ...

Any suggestions or am I just freaking out about the overlap? or both... :D ( I had to delete the tool paths to be able to send it, Th...

goofy offset

I found a tutorial video for stacked text that has worked good for me... http://bit.ly/2uMh968 ... I was trying to copy to another layer and offset it like the video says at 03:05 and got a goofy result where it only made an outline and it would not group.... any suggestions?

Re: nesting problem

Re: nesting problem

these are the clamps I am trying to make. I am trying to get the most out of the scrap MDF that I have. I took and copied and moved things on the l bracket file instead of nesting. I put the clamps and braces for references. I have all of the big corners and 11in cam clamps I need on the big corner ...
