Leadins & Leadouts

Post by CNCCAJUN »

How do you control location?

The Auto Method it seems to use puts divots.

Is there a way to do this?

Or is this why some people draw what they want for leadins in their DXF?

If drawn in, how do you direct SheetCAM there?

When you want to move a start point, press the S button on the tool bar. select your operation in bottom and then you will see a S where ever you place your curser on the line. Click on the spot you want and go to the next start point.
