Hi spanner888,

thank you for your tips. Frankly, until now I never needed a custom preamble.
I will try to build my own until I get some more info here.

Best regards,

Hi there, I am generating gcode for a 3axis CNC that is powered by LinuxCNC. Today I ran a program with 3000mm/min and noticed VERY round corners. After some research, I learned that linux cnc will use the G64 mode as standard, if no explicit G61 or G64 P*** is given. According to this: https://foru...

Hi Thomas and Bance,

thank you for your advice.

@Bance, the copy and position approach seems good. I am still struggling with attaching the sketch correctly. I will read some more on attachment in FreeCAD and try again.

@Thomas: could you send me the link to the video?

Hi! Maybe this is a bug: When I deactivate a job to create single G-code files for the jobs, and i re-activate the job, the single tags are not activated. I then need to reactivate each single tag within the Tag-dressup options and then apply again. Model is attached. Just deactivate and activate on...

Hi! I try to build the models for CNCing with parameters in a spreadsheet as much as possible. Now I would like to add some of the parameters to the filename of the exported gocde file. Like: model_A_width_xxx.ngc A, and xxx being a parameter from the spreadsheet. Is it possible to set this up in th...

Hi all, finally I found the time to build my benchtop router table. This was one of my first designs in freecad. I modelled everything using 0.18 and generated g-code for the table and the insert in 0.18. Now I created the g-code for the fence in 0.19. I built the table and the insert with the route...

Hi mlampert, This might be side effect on the "lazy loading" of modules that was recently done. If you run into this, make sure to switch to the Draft WB and then try again. This did the trick. It works without error if the draft WB is opened first. Thank you! However, I get the following ...
