#PdfToGcode #inkscape #fusion360
This video shows how I generated the gcode for a Mig29 from a PDF plan. I used it in the CNC Needle Cutter video.    • CNC Needle Cutter for Depron Foam Boa...  

The following free software was used to create the gcode:

Inkscape https://inkscape.org/
Fusion 360 https://www.autodesk.co.uk/products/f...
OpenBuilds Cam https://software.openbuilds.com/

This process works well for me but there are other ways and software to do this with.

If you just need the DXF files then this process will work as well. Just miss out on the last step using the CAM software.

This process can be used on different types of CNC machines such as laser cutter, milling, routing and plasma cutters.

There is a posting on the website here with details and links https://rckeith.co.uk/pdfplanstog...

** Be aware that I will not be sharing the gcode or DXF files out of respect to the designers. Please support them as I have done. **
