roh: how can i tell curs through the board from inscriptions in protocase_v7_laser.dxf ?

eh.. hm.. wasnt it diffent layers or so?
<wpwrak>
ah. layers. let's find out how these are encoded ...
<roh>
uhm. nope.. meh
<roh>
to be fair.. not sure.. i always used composites anyhow (multiple cases on one sheet)
<roh>
the sheets i used in the end were 900x600mm
<roh>
so... big dxf files.. with lots of cuts
<roh>
last batch was 12 of these sheets
<wpwrak>
yes, but how does the cutter shallow cuts and deep cuts apart ?
<wpwrak>
Z always seems to be 0
<wpwrak>
s/cutter/cutter tell/
<roh>
i had seperated the lines when doing the matrix copys.. depending on what machine you need to prepare anyhow
<roh>
some machines use line-with, some style, some color, some layer for laser-power settings
<wpwrak>
grmph
<wpwrak>
is protocase_v7_laser.dxf your "source" ? or is this derived from some other file ?
<roh>
and often you dont have sane presets and do some tests and 'note down' the material color, type, vendor, thickness to power/cut-depth ratio
<roh>
protocase_v7_laser.dxf is the 'source' for the derived files
<roh>
i also have some where the 'slots' are wider (to the outside) up to 3.3mm... acryllic is evil when it comes to tolerances
<wpwrak>
so how do you pick out the inscriptions ? to you mark them manually and then copy/move/delete them ?
<roh>
15-20% thickness tolerance is within normal
<roh>
i marked them manually when doing the matrix copys
<wpwrak>
phew :)
<wpwrak>
you still have too much youthful energy :)
<roh>
and on our machine i use multiple files for different power settings (and markers (small L rotated 90°cw)) in the upper left
<roh>
outside of the object
<roh>
heh.. you call that youthful energy? heh... you should see these commercial cad using kids working on stuff.. no clue about enslaving machines to do your work.

hacked on a parametric cookie cutter 3d generator using openscad today
<wolfspraul>
any idea about the mechanical of this? I will ask but right now just wondering where it's sourced/made, or if you look at it what ideas for cheap and good mechanical you have for this thing...
