I have done very well using my new Langmuir table and am able to run already put together g-code files and have done large sheets cuts with great success however, converting DXF files to g-code is not working for me and I am not able to use many available files because I am not able to convert them properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am also willing to pay for tutoring on this subject because I enjoy making all kinds of art designs and there are great files available to use.
I have bought fusion360 and sheetcam and just don't know all the steps to make it work. Please consider helping me. Thanks from MICHIGAN
