    Dinos!
    As big as possible in the minimum amount of foam...

    To keep my friend's kids busy during xmas, and so his ex-wife gets mad with the space they take ! LOL
    will also provide paint and brushes so they redecorate them, and neighboring furniture

    I have posted some Dinos under the Crafts section of the free plans. But I think you already have most of them.
    I have the saber tooth cat ,ape But I have to convert them to code then I will post them as well.
    I had the T-rex but I can not find where I put the stupid file(man I hate that) can't wait till (they) come up with a file system that works from voice commands :) FIND T-REX Sketchup file . :mrgreen:
    I also have the fly a honey bee, crickit and a ton of other files I can't think of off the top of my head. I am posting as I go through the files. I think I will put a section up for people to upload their dxf and pdf files for us to convert and post for them and whoever elase wants them.

    I think it might be better to always leave us the sketchup file with the paths added to it, so we can change drill bit size, or material thickness, and generate the code ourself.

    thanks

    I'll finish up my giant dragonfly sometime soon. It took five sheets, but all the parts were double thick for strength. I (my GF actually) used colored cling wrap to fill the eyes and wings holes. I was way cool. To cool because it was taken in the middle of the night.

    edit: it was a mantis not a dragonfly :oops:

    Hey, does anyone remember where to find the "Lawn Ness" model? I lost the link, I think.

    Sorry, not Nesse. The Lawn-Ness is a 3-section dinosaur skeleton, arranged on the lawn so it looks kinda like the Lochness monster surfing through the grass. I must have the name wrong, because a Google search for that name doesn't work, either. Maybe it was "lawn-dragon" or sumthin' like that. :oops:

    Hello All,

    I am new to this, I am looking for a way to convert your cnc files to DXF format.
    Can anyone help?

    You have several different options here. There are g-code to dxf converters out there. You just have to search for them. You could always open the Sketchup file and use the PhlatScripT to make your own g-code version of the file. Or, if you have the pro version of Sketchup, you could export it to a dxf. Those are pretty much the only options I can think of for the free plans files created here for the Phlatprinter in Sketchup but there are a lot of free dxf files here as well that have been uploaded to the free pdf's and dxf's section.

    Enjoy.

    I looked into it, Boort, and the file is no longer available on the site, just the ling to it. I guess it gets purged after a certain amount of time. It was posted in 2008!
