I think that many folks do the drawing with Inkscape and save as dxf, then import to Sheetcam to generate the g-code.

What issues are you having. Look at some YT vids from Arc Light dynamics. Also search YT of what you are looking to do. As "radius corners in inkscape". Many come up. I always save off my inkscape extensions as .SVG and then do post processing with SheetCam.

No. I wasn't questioning youtube. I just didn't understand what the YT stood for. My mistake. I always spell it out.

Ya. Sorry. I hate acronyms myself. Also I was at your website. I recall you having a pen holder or something for the duramax torch. I did not see it on your site. Sorry to highjack OP.
