I found a couple of DXF files on thingiverse which I downloaded, a couple of old librecad drawings that I have (pretty simple stuff) and tried all of those with the same results.
Does PyCAM handle drag knives? Martin ________________________________ From: Chris Albertson DXF files can be complex and yours might even have problems. Can other software import the DXF files? Try that, make a trivial change then re-export to DXF. The other option is PyCAM. It can generate g-code from DXF also. Or look at the traceback and see what went wrong. There is something in your DXF file the dxf2gcode can't handle. Fix that.
