tools DB

Post by wcarrothers »

Just wanted to ask (looks like you can) but to be sure if you could copy the vcarve tools DB to your aspire tools directory and it should be safe & work?

(have some 100+ tools programed in some custom shape ones which I don't really have the profile vectors I made them with orignaly.)

That is a good question. I would also like to know about the PP database. I have tweek the gcode-inch to work on my machine and would like to use it in Aspire.

I've moved mine and looks like it works but only one way to be 100% sure.

Hi,

You can use any of the PostProcessors from VCarve Pro with Aspire.
