I see all that, but if I select gcolde to feed my milling machine running the master version of LinuxCNC, it brings up a list of post-proc's, one of which is Linuxcnc. And if sent as a print job to my huge brother mfc-j6920-dw, it spits out a blank sheet of glossy photo paper. So I'm locked out of saving in a file format thats readable by human eyes.
Hi Gene, I misunderstood 🙂 I don't know what steps you have taken so far to get the g code from Freecad. Most CAD systems do not directly produce g code, a CAM system is required to do that, in Freecad this is called the path workbench. Is this where you are getting the gcode from? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWFC17MIfOE With the objective of massaging it to work better for you? Or are you trying to produce a dimensioned drawing to aid you in writing gcode from scratch? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ2685bk3_E Sorry if I'm still not getting it.
