You bought my Tongs DXF, but how do I open it in sheet cam
Okay, the file we are going to work on is in your download (download again if you don't have it, as I keep adding files.
Start sheetcam
File-> Import Drawing
Navigate to the file you downloaded "Full Deluxe Set v 2.0 3_8 sheet 3_8 rivet_spread_around.dxf"
Click Open
Pick the location for objects, scaling inch.
You should now see this
You will note i have all my tools preloaded for the the Hyperthem 45x
I will now apply an operation.
Click Operation-> Plasma Cut
Click ok
You will see this
You will note that the leadins need some work to get them to show up for the holes as they are
pretty small, and you will probably want a rule for the small holes to make them cut better.
But I don't have my plasma Cutter together yet, so this is as far as I can take it (i have 3 of the 5 boxes for my cutter delivered so far)
