turn wings3d into g-code - H20Blue - 03-13-2015 08:56 AM
Thanks Wings 3D its been a few years but I'm back. Love your product..
My question is how do I turn my model into GCodes for Artcam?

H20Blue,
Welcome back. You need to find some software that will convert a 3d model into a Gcodes file.
I googled and found the following software... MeshCam Software. You can try it for free for 15 days but it cost $250.00. Export from Wings3D as .stl and use MeshCam to convert to a Gcodes file for Artcam. At least that is what I understand from what I have read so far.
I will see if I can find other software that is free. If I find some I will add to this post.
Edit: I just found a page with several software options listed. Try them out and let us know what works best... GCode Generators
Thanks,
oort
