Hi all. First time posting. I have a few questions to ask about sketchucam.

First let me tell you my background. I have a cnc router I build from a kit 5 years ago. I have never quite understood hot to get a 3d drawing to my cnc. So I gave up on it. Well now it looks like I need it to help me make some money. I been a broadcast engineer for about 15 years a graphic designer and video fx editor for about 20 years. I can pick up on software pretty quick. And I understand machines pretty well.
I have watched all the tutorials several times but still hitting road blocks. I have never done anything like this before.


So first question can skecthup free work with sketchucam or will I need to have pro?
2. For my project I will have to use the 3d in sketchucam. There is only one video on it and it leaves a lot more questions then answers. Is there a manual.

Last question if I sent my file to someone could you make it into gcode for me and shoot a video to show me how you did it.

I would be willing to pay if its not that expensive. Or will to trade. I started my own t-shirt business and would be happy you print a few shirts for anyone that can help.

Thanks for any help and answers. You can give

Thanks for any help you can give. I will be checking out your links now. Here is a link to my Dropbox for the design. It should be simple. I'm excited to see if it can be done.

Anything else I can do for you please let me know.

I will try su7 and sucam. I just got a new spindle that can handle a 1/4 bit down to a 1/8 it should help me with my designs. This is just a side rail. I have others the is only 2d so I hope to be able to produce.

Thanks again

 

Thanks so much. I will check it.
