Hi, I use a milling tool to create holes. You do this by forming two half arcs at the width of the tool in the milling layer. I use a 1.5mm diameter tool. I use it to cut out holes bigger than the

I don't do a lot of this, but from what I know, the following needs to be considered:? (interleaved) The dimension layer is used for limits of fills and the like.? The milling layer is straight cuts

Thanks all! By placing the outline of the board on the milling layer, everything seems to be working well. Should I add circles or holes to the milling layer to cut holes?? All I get so far are

And on the milling layer, the line you draw is the path of the endmill. So if you use a 0.1" end mill, draw the outline 0.05" away from where you want the cut. - Steve

I used a gilloteen type paper cutter for board outline and a hand drill for mounting holes.

That’s right Art, you can draw the outline on the milling layer. You can also use the dash-dot, dash-dash, etc lines to make cutouts with retainer tabs. I think it’s in the manual somewhere.

Hi, IF I remember correctly, the board outline is shown on the Dimension layer (Layer 20) and you have to include it in one of your of your cuts (if your doing multi layer boards) Holes on Layer 45.?

How do I get the board outline to be cut out?? The isolation spaces seem to work fine, and the holes get marked, but the outline doesn't show up and the mounting holes don't seem to get cut either.?

Hello, I hope this post may be useful to those interested in another method of milling PCB's. This is a suggestion and no way to slight the hard work in developing or the use of PCB GCode in anyway,

Hi .. what is the your job..

When I need to whip out a board pcbgcode and (old) eagle are my goto. I hit alt-p and my board is ready to drill and route. A most excellent tool and because the code is solid and available its easy

What is your tool change position z set to? The G00 Z0.0000 is kind of scary, and I think it that should be the tool change position, such as 1.0000 inches so you can change the tool. Page 9 in the

Hi, I use a number of options, I use Solidworks to create design then as I am not an avid user of Fusion360 but I do have a free hobby licence so I import into Fusion360 as a STEP file I then create

I still use it to make the circuit boards for all of the tube amps I make. I also use it to make the aluminum logo plates for the front of my amps & speaker cabinets. Pcbgcode has played a huge role

I discovered pcbgcode about 10 years ago when I built my first CNC machine. I have used the then current version of Eagle with pcbgcode intermittently as my hobby needs evolved. I’d hate to see it

Oh, I find it useful, especially in making cases, adaptors and the like.? Since I can program, OpenSCAD is a perfectly reasonable thing for me.

Thanks.? The board size and schematic limitations are inadequate to my existing designs. Harvey

Hi, I wrote a separate program that takes a .brd file, and finds models (which I had to create) of the parts, places them, and generates an openSCAD model of the board. The advantage is that you could

I am currently using Fusion with a hobby license. The cnc setups, rapids and tool changes are not enabled.?But there are "work arounds".? And Eagle still works with the board size limitation. Steve

Fusion 360 does have a hobby license. Been using it for years. Look it up in Google. There is a process to get the hobby license working. Thank you, Ward M. Elder Eldersoft 42 Appleton St. Winnipeg,
