hello friends this is for every one who facing problem with g-code extention To add G-code Extension in Inkscape software Download this file :- www.dropbox.com/s/o9bim3dbbvzyt89/extensions.zip?dl=0 After download unzip it copy the "Extensions" folder now close the inkscape software if open, right click on Inkscape Icon goto properties Click on "Open file Location" now here open "Share" folder now past here that "Extensions" folder system ask 'file is all ready exist do you want to overwrite click on yes ' or you can directly delete current existing "Extension" folder and past new one in this way you get G-code extension in you software in very easy way now open Inkscape & check

[@marcderiveau9307]

I’m no expert, but because I don’t have the opportunity to save the file in “ngc” format, I use the “Exten sions” menu and it works just fine. Just be sure you download the plugin first. Then go to the menu Extensions ... Gcodetools...Tools library. Choose a tool and Apply. Then Extensions...Gcodetools...Orientation points. Choose and Apply. Then Extensions...Gcodetools...Path to Gcode. Go to Preferences and don’t fortget to fill Directory. In my case I write C:\Users\Marco\Documents.Then go to Path to Gcode, change something if something has to be changed, then Apply. Your file is now in Documents or whatever you choose the destination

[@Xanderioz]

Okay so my problem with this extension was that my gcode only writes down straight lines in my arduino cnc plotter. I opened the .gcode file in notepad and noticed negative coordinate values (which arduino can't read). I changed all negatives with positives but then (ofcourse) the whole drawing changes. My question is: is there a way to save the gcode without negative coordinates?

[@bermchasin]

you cant just set all negatives to positives, but you can scale by the following factor: (initial_coords)-MINIMUM(initial_coords). This will give all positive values, but now your max value will be larger than wanted. So then scale all coordinates to get it back to the right values. scale_factor = MAX(coords) / [1 / (MIN(initial_coords)/MAX(coords)+1))], where MAX(coords) is just MAX(inital_coords)-MIN(initial_coords)

Hello, Mr Innovative.. Thanks for such an explanatory video..it helped a lot for beginners like me.. I just made my cnc plotter using Arduino mega.. and it is working fine to some extent.. well I need ur help to improve its performance...this are the few issues I'm facing 1) The image for which I'm generating a Gcode is not plotting the image completely, only the left quarter part is being ploted. 2) during the generating of Gcode.. the image I'm placing is horizontal in inkspace.. but during its execution..cnc is plotting it vertically.. I have even interchanged X and Y axis even though problem exist. 3) How ur cnc machine is working with that speed.. is that because u have used an external power supply? though I'm not using any external power supply. This are few queries, I appreciate ur work..And keep this good innovative ideas for future projects.. Have a good day :--) waiting for ur response, Thank U :-)

[@MrInnovative]

thanks brother for you appreciation 1) at 12.06 time in my cnc machine video you can see i place "MI" text little offset to the center just because of the same reason, this is happening when our stepper axis lost its 0.0 position due to moving shaft manually sometime. 2)dont interchange x & y axis just interchange each axis's coil you will get right settings 3) yes do try to give external power its give motor more energy. this are the same problem which i face in begging it take lots of time to get right combinations good luck for your machine bro..

I don't even get gcode offered as a saving option.

It is now the fifth program after freecad, pycam, dxf2gcode and linuxcnc that fails to do what it is supposed to do for me. I'm really tempted to reprogram my 3018 over to be compatible with the NEJE software and just limit myself to 4cm x 4cm PCBs. Or invert the Z axis drive and use CURA to create the gcode files... Isn't there a single noob compatible program? Or a version of those programs that works as advertised?
