Your favourite CAD software -> DXF file -> DXF2GCODE -> G-Code file -> MaslowĪssumption 1: You have a DXF file and you know what elements you want to cut (and whether you want to do an internal cut or external cut).Īssumption 2: You know what kind of tool you have on Maslow, and that it is set up so that Z=0 is the top surface of the workpiece, positive Z is above the workpiece (for safe moving) and negative Z is below the surface, cutting into the workpiece.Īssumption 3: You know the best feed rate for your tool and material, how thick the material is, and how deep you want to cut each element. Double yay! I am mostly using QCAD, but I have also used OpenSCAD to make a 2D projection of a model, which can then be exported as DXF. The other thing is you can use your favourite CAD software to make the DXF. Obviously, once you have the G-Code file you can load it up onto the Maslow. Some DXF file -> DXF2GCODE -> G-Code file
