| + | The post processor for use is going to be Grbl (inch) or Grbl (mm) depending on your document units. Vector files in a variety of formats from a variety of softwares (e.g. Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Inkscape, AutoCAD, etc.) can be imported to Vectric VCarve. |
| + | |
| + | Members can use the VCarve Pro Trial Edition from home to set up their parts and save as a .crv file, though vector files can not be imported in the trial version. Files can only be posted from the Makerspace edition which we have at PS1. |
