Make sure that if you are nesting parts that have internal holes, that you group the holes with the part, or include them in a path

Are you creating a male cut path?

I attached an example

hello all, I was wondering if anyone has suggestions for designing with common line cutting. It would save much time with projects we are cutting. I have tried, but cannot seem to get this function to work.

Hello all, I need to label some parts with some small lettering. When I go to create path and hit fill, run through the procedure, I do not get the letters and numbers, just little shapes. Is there a way to just get the outlines of the letters and numbers, or a font that just is a single line...

Sometimes if the part I am cutting does not touch the program zero, I will run the torch down and fire it so that I have a reference point if the table looses position or something

I made some 3 inch wrenches for a guy restoring an ol piece of farm equipment , he was very happy.

I was working with a local company, and they purchased a new computer to design on, and did not know how to get the .gm format. It is new software, I just had to remember how to set that up. It has been good to work with them, they have the accumove 2 and I have the accumove 3, so I get to see...

This is a great series, very helpful.

figured it out, you have to go into Machining defaults and change to Accumove imperial.

Is there a setting in Torchmate CAD I need to change to output .gm files? Right now the only option is .fgl file format.

That is a great idea, and totally customizable (sp?)

I have mine in the back of my computer in computer stand, fortunately no issues, but that is a great idea
