http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Simple_EMC_G-Code_Generators

useful for simpler works without fireup the whole thing (CAD, CAM).

For a (embrionic) open source CAM give a look at

http://gcam.js.cx/index.php/Main_Page

but, again, no DXF conversion here.

Until now, I use CamBam on the same (Window$) machine where CAD is runnig.

There are some G-Code generators for simple things over at the EMC wiki site...

[Emc-users] new to CNC

2008-04-15 Thread Marc Koch
Hi,

I'm following this very interesting group for a while now. In the meantime I 
build a plywood router and I played around with the hobbyCNC board connected to 
an old laptop running EMC2.

I've two questions so far:
- What do you use in the Linux world to convert from DXF to G-Code? I found 
CamBam very nice in the Windows world.

- How to change pulse width generated?

Thx
Marc
