Larry: I thought helping you out with Ed McCullogh's files would be easy so I looked in my files when I realized that the Hard Drive they were on crashed a year ago. Then I went to SB's site where they always were and discovered-Gone. I figured they were in Project Wizard-Nope. Then I realized they were probably on my old shop computer which I have had in storage since I closed up my small shop and dug it out to hook it up and discovered I'm short a couple of power supply cords to get it going right now. I was actually going to dig them out anyway to have the guys in my current shop cut for the plant yard and now I can't find them either!! I wonder if they might show up on Project Wizard anytime soon? If not, I could use a fresh set too.

If anyone wants them let me know.

Happy Holidays

Did you want to slay Santa or the deer?

Don't you guys use WinZip???

santasleigh.zip (26.8 k)

Brady: Your zip is in ai format which in this case happens to be a much smaller file than the dxf files I have. If that works for anyone interested-great. If not, I'll still be happy to send the dxf's which are too large (zipped to 176kb) to post and open to over a meg. If there is a way to reduce the dxf's further I don't know what it is but I'd like to learn. In the meantime, even though I can't open the files in Adobe since I don't have it, they did import and open beautifully into Part Wizard. By the way, I tend to use RAR which usually compresses better than Winzip. Check it out.

Dave,
These were converted by Dale Kerr a few years back. I looked but could not find the DXF versions. It is an earlier AI format so it should import in to PW, VCW & Pro with no problems...that should have just about everybody covered.

DXFs don't usually compress well even though they are text based. They vary in what rate they will compress in my experience.

I actually use WinRAR instead of WinZip, but since most don't know what a .rar is...I select ZIP & do it at max compression. This makes it easy to post on the web in a format that everyone recognizes.
