G code for CAD /CAM

Can I upload G code that was created in inventables easel. Fusion 360 is still a little complicated for me. Are there any work around to make the design and manufacturing a little more simple?

Creating a file in can be fusions 360 very straightforward. If you provide an example of what you’re trying to do I could do a walk-through video on Twitch of the steps that you take.

Just trying to design and manufacture something in 2d. Like for instance a knife blank

Right on I’ll take a quick coffee here and I’ll put together a video of how I would deal with a knife blank in fusion 360

If you can export or save your file as DXF or SVG, you can create the necessary G-code in Sheetcam.

David, you make me smile. You are not wrong but you still make me smile!

Fusion is great, but its not for everybody. The guy has software he is comfortable with and Sheetcam will allow him to continue to use it. It looks like Easel has the ability to download project files as a Zip file, which contains an SVG of the project.

can you send video of knife blank to curtisnix11@gmail.com

How can I see video you made again

@Curtisnix

They disappear into the ether after 7 days . I have it on my hard drive but it 'll just be easier to Stream again. I am now setting up my live video feed so it will stream on Twitch and YouTube at the same time but I have to wait 24 hours till YouTube unlocks the function after my request.

Here is a Knife CAD CAM live stream on Twitch for now. ill start in about 10 minutes
