Have exceeded my knowledge and need help

Post by number1cas »

Hello, I am trying to make a sign for a friends garage and must admit, although I am learning this craft, I have hit the wall on this one. I have traced it in inkscape and brought it into Fusion 360 where I have invested a TON of hours cleaning it up but now it is proving to be too large of a file for my system and I cant work with it any more. I don't have the skills to complete this one at this point. Can anyone offer me a hand with it? I am willing to pay at this point as I just don't have the time left to learn this one. I will stick to making my own simpler designs for now.
Let me know if you can help me and I can provide what I have so far.

Thanks
Chad

Ok what I have done with large projects is the break them apart. I don't know why you are moving the file into Fusion 360 you should be able the make a great file in Inkscape. By breaking the file/project up I mean to copy sections to another inkscape and pasting it there then save it, As long as you use the same starting point X0.0, Y0.0 the files for each section will be positioned correctly, leave the outside cut for the last.
