from a different Way...

Post by MarcoKnjaschewitsch »

Ok i figure i will change up this and start fresh and see if anyone can help or know how. Here are the 2 Logo's i need to get done. I need to do them on a 1 inch board within a 3ft Long x 2ft High Oval shape. Just need it to carve out the logo's...Seems like it should be easy...just i've never done it or fooled with a program to do it...

Macro what you are wanting to do with these logos can easily be don with a carving program such as art cam or v carve pro . THM has a custom program service that could get this project done for you. Just contact them and I am sure they would be more than glad to help you out.

Marco,
Open your code file and change G901 (or G52L1) to G902 (or G52L2) if that's what you need. You can also do this at the controller by arrowing down to the line in question, press tab, edit the line, then enter. Don't forget to arrow back up the the red line you started from before pressing "green to go".
