Hi Dave (and list),
I just uploaded a Gerber file (from Eagle demo), and the DXF and CNC
files I created from it! No sorting done, so probably wanders all over
the 6x8" board! Nothing fancy, but I'm getting there (OK, I couldn't
use the rectangular pads, atan2 error, so I substituted circular ones).
This side wasn't too bad, a lot of cutting! More to test software, then
to ACTUALLY mill a board.
I DO like the idea of working from the gerber file. Then, if acceptable
(mill them until they're correct), one can send Gerber file to board
house, no errors!
