Ok, at it again…so trying to make something for a friend and looks like it should cut…but can’ get it to cut…about to start fresh, other than he’s be coming down form Michigan in 2 days and was trying to have it done for him. Had it almost perfect, but needed to spread out the bridges on a few letters now because first test cut they couple centers of letters still cut too much out.
now I can’t even get the processes without skipping cuts of a few letters.
What are you using for software?
I’m using Fusion 360
can you upload your F3D file?
Oldsmobile v4.f3d (1.1 MB)
I am new to fusion and thought I could help, I see there is a problem but not sure what it is.
@TinWhisperer he might be able to help if someone else does jump in.
Sorry I could not help.
np…thanks for trying atleast. Yeah @TinWhisperer has helped me in the past…trying not to make this a habit…lol
I do see something looks weird when I look at named views. Something weird with the one named “Home”. Almost looks like parts of the letters stick above the rest. I just looked at your file and there is something weird with that view,
yeah, I’m not sure.
Cant sleep so I’ll check this on on the stream at about 2:20 am mst

Yeah, not using a Esab because it’s a high frequency machine , I’m using a Primeweld Cut60
Make sure you stop back and let us know how the Tin modified file worked.
Worked perfectly, can’t wait till I pick this up like @TinWhisperer. I’m so use to Laser cutting and engraving, I guess I was naive to think it was as simple. Got to learn the kerf and spacing makes alot more difference on plasma than lasers.

Well, only if they still like Oldsmobile. Is that still a brand?

Tornado …
Cutlass Supreme…
Pretty epic vehicles.
And not to mention the Delta 88 I had two different friends that had those vehicles and that was a lot of car.
I would love to see a 12 valve 6bt Dodge diesel in any one of those three cars. (Well I guess not the tornado without a crazy amount of rework)
Almost nothing cooler than American muscle roll’n coal

My friend Retired from Oldsmobile…though he’s still a GM fan boy.
To my question of it still being a brand (from one of the interweb):
“Defunct: April 29, 2004; 18 years ago”
Not dissing the brand, only asking the question of its existence.

Good tip on adding the corner radius. I have had several letters that Manu refused to tool path and I had no idea why. This gives me a direction to try.
