HELP! New user needs a tutorial with up to date versions of Inkscape and Sheetcam

I am new to the game and need some serious help. I need some updated version tutorials of inkscape and Sheetcam. All tutorials I have seen are outdated, very old. So when I try to do anything similar to tutorial it does not work for me. I really do not know how to get this table running. I bought it thinking it was very simple to use but I think I messed up, lol. Any help would be appreciated. Several people mention videos on You Tube but have not found a good one to help me out. I have Inkscape, Sheetcam and Fire Control. TIA…

arclight has some of the best sheetcam videos…

what issues are you having?

Well I have everything ready to go. I cannot figure out how to go from Inkscape to Sheetcam to Fire Control. I have watched several videos but they are all older videos. Both Inkscape and Sheetcam have been updated so its a bit confusing.

Ok you save file as a plain svg not a inkscape svg in inkscape. Then open that file in sheetcam to make the gcodes. I am sure you understand that part. I don’t want to insult.

Arclight does videos on YouTube about sheet cam they are not much difference between then and now.

Do you have any specific questions??

My workflow is similar, but I use a different vector program than Inkscape. Pretty simple workflow.

My you tube link is in my profile. I haven’t done a video in a while, but what’s there will show you my workflow.
