I am helping my friend with a project he is doing on a small shop cnc machine. We have designed the wheel in AutoCad2006 and then insert the file into his CNC on board software which is BobCad. What happens is the BobCad software converts the file to G-Code and after doing so the drawing is all distorted.

My question is what is the best way to convert the AutoCad file to G-Code ?

We are both taking our first autocad class (in our 40's) in an evening adult continuing education course. That is how I was introduced to The AUGI group. The teacher has attended some of the AUGI functions and recommended to us that we visit the website.

This was a beginning course that we are in and after taking this class we are now looking forward in continuing on with our AutoCAD development with the next level course.
