V-Carving

Post by prius06 »

Is it possible (or are there any plans to make it possible) to generate V-Carving paths with FreeCAD?

I was browsing the Internet for something like that and came across this open source program named F-Engrave which is written in Python:
F-Engrave

The author also published the math behind it:
F-Engrave V-Carve Calculations

Thanks

Can't do it yet but have some plans. Now that openvoronoi has be re-licensed as lgpl, v-carving is even more do-able.

Just needs someone to jump in and make it happen. :D
