I have a set of plans that i want put on computer so i can find someone who can cut out the parts on a cnc machine.
I have tried to cut them out my self and i hate to say this but i bite. I am a journeyman cabinet maker, and have all of the tools needed to cut parts out with the exception of a cnc and the right way to do it.
If anyone can help me out on this please let me know.
:eek: :confused: :mad:

I can scan them in if you'd like. I'm an engineer (no, not a train) & can scan them in for you. I don't have a rastor to vector translator but I might be able to find one & get it converted to an iges or dxf format so someone can CNC program to it. How clear are the plans? How big are they? The crisper, the better.

the plans are clear and crisp
if i take them to the blue print shop can they do it too
I had them blown up 200% and that is the size I want but since I am new at this i am not sure

It cost me 78 dollars to do it the first time but I am having problems with the copying and cutting out of the parts
