Thanks for the input guys, im glad i wasnt lied to James haha but for now inkscape is fine. I just want to start cutting! I would like to think 6+ months down the road i will have these programs down pretty good and may start looking into other programs. As always TomWS, you have been so helpful and i appriciate it! I did start a new thread and your input is always welcome, my set up is inkscape, sheetcam and fire control. Feel free to chime in! .
