    I drew up some motor mounts in sketchup, added the inside and outside cut lines from the phlatscript and the phlatcode was not produced. What am I doing wrong?

    Its too big.. your parts need to fit inside the cutting safety limits

    I highly recommend watching the videos that Mark has done on how to use the Phlatscript. They will get you so much further to understanding how to use the Phlatscript and Sketchup.
    There is a few other things that aren't right than just the size.
    Some of your faces are reversed. This will make the cutting tool go around the part in the opposite direction, which will give rough edges. Also you might want to double check your measurements. I don't think your parts are going to line up with each other correctly.
