It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

Find out what formats the laser can take and the bed size. The one at my hackerspace takes svg, pdf/ps, coreldraw and others. It is installed as a printer driver, so it works with a lot of formats really.

Do you happen to know what software they are using to parse the files? Is it commercial or open source?

Some friends and I were kicking around the idea of building a C02 laser cutter and we have a pretty good idea on how to do everything but generate the G code from multiple file formats like you're doing.

That's super cool Jestery, congrats!

The pictures have a ton of character with the 'defects' that aren't digitally generated. The film grain, lens scratches, the er, um... side pubes, and just the general knowledge that they were made on a hand-made camera make them awesome.

:nice:
