Open the DXF file in LibreCAD and check it's ok.įile:CEB Press Drawer Side.dxf This is what I got.It may be that he has opened the dxf in myplasm and saved or exited that software and it has converted the poly lines to straight line segments between the nodes. Select the new object Shape2DView and check it's ok. Select a standard view (keys 1-6), which shows the face to be cut. Follow Abe's procedure: DXF_Export_in_FreeCAD (I'd add that to see the DXF options, I had to go to Draft Workbench before). So, what we need is a 2D drawing for the face to be cut, with DXF format. First I took these DXF files as an example: File:Trencherdxfs.zip. 
I think I've discovered how to get the right DXF files for cutting. The instruction say to put the files it into the. To clarify further on the DXF import/export library I had trouble with the plugin so I disabled the automatic one in preferences for FreeCAD v0.16 and I used v1.39 available here Notes: Unit selections in FreeCAD do not affect size of SVG.įreeCAD v0.16 and earlier From Abe Anderson
MJ notes - Note that this works in v16, and it works for any original sketch - or sketch generated from 3D using Shape2DView. Now Export sketch as flattened svg via file->export. Use Draft-> Draft to Sketch (still viewing normal to sketch plane) 
In Draft Workbench, go to Draft -> Shape2DView tool if you want to flatten the 3D shape.
The CNC machine can do better than the crude approximation the draft workbench gives.Īidan Williamson ( talk) 01:43, 8 December 2019 (UTC) The issue with the draft-> Shape2DView is that it doesn't produce good circles.
