Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] making a valintine for my girl

Hi Bill,

I'm thinking! What art (the heart) do you have to import? In Vector I
can "load" a .JPG file, and then put points on the image I see. Then I
can draw arcs or lines through the points. Send me a JPG, and I'll see
what I can do with it. I (wife) has some heart shaped boxes that could
be "scanned" in, or "measured". I'd think that the hearts are made up
of simple geometric shapes, so given the proper scale between the parts,
it should be possible to "draw" a good heart.
