Another area to look at is the actual toolpath created by that font. If you select the vector in node mode the font curves should be just a few nodes, otherwise what you may have is hundreds of...

Thanks I will give that a try. Sounds like it's kinda like making your own ColorCore! Great idea. I use my bot for making models using Sintra and have not tried lamination's. My go to for models...
"Sintra a long time ago when I was researching a job at the time. I can share that if anybody is interested." I's be interested in anything to do with Sintra, thanks! Russ
Great software. Russ
"don't leave it" I tried that but the boss said "we're going"! :D Sooooo, I went! Hope you all are having a great holiday wherever you are! Russ
I'm down in Cal and away from my Bot! 5 more days before I can get back up to my snow covered shop and my Bot! Question what do you all do when you have to leave your Bot's for awhile? ;) Hope...
An additional thought this morning, I get "notifications" when some one posts to the Shopbot Facebook site. The Shopbot forum I need to go to it to see if anything has been posted. Just a thought...
I'm not really sure but I think the titles change by qty of posts not age. ;) Russ

Could the apparent lack of interest in Shopbot / this forum be as simple as the new buyers are much more in tune with XYZ technology than we were way back when we bought our machines. We had all...
On the left is a 225 point capitol letter S saved as a JPG, brought into Aspire and shows the segmented line interpretation. On the right is 225 point capitol letter S showing that a vector S will...
"Normally" - don't you just love that word. . . . in my limited experience this is caused because the imported image came from a DXF file and not a vector based file. The DXF does not support smooth...
Looks great, I love making models with my Bot. They will love it I'm sure. Russ
I got my machine in 2008 as a retirement project. Having grown up and retired from the computer world, the first thing I did before firing up was I replaced every cable with premium cables,...
I hope you realize that you are replying to an EIGHT year old thread! LOL Russ
The only REAL advantage of OUR collective problems is that we all get to hide our own Easter Eggs! I'm still a little red faced but have really enjoyed finding out I'm not alone! Russ
Getting old means one has to have a sense of humor. So I'm looking all over the shop for an 1/8th in ER25 collet. Found all of them EXCEPT! After a long search period I gave up. Got ready to go...
"signfoam and color core" Sounds like it should be in really great shape! That stuff cuts like butta! My machine is that old and I certainly wouldn't sell it that cheap, I like the 10 to 11 k...
Well done both models. Nice pieces. Russ
I am a modeler that happens to own a Bot, a 3d printer, and a laser. My models are 1/8th scale (1 1/2 inch to the foot)' I do the main structure on da bot and trim and other detail goodies mostly...
Just a wild guess on my part, but, a lot of our forumites are overseas and do not necessarily use "our" US character set. My guess might be that the translation of some of those characters might not...

Nicely done. My wife is a quilter and also an avid reader, cool project. Russ
I miss the shows/meets/gatherings! :( Russ
"other wacky customer experiences" Exactly. I am rural so a lot of times I email them a pix before they come to pick it up! Takes all kinds I guess. Tnx for the reply's, I appreciate it. Russ
