Ok....... clean up from what ? You need to use the join command if you have one in turobcad, and make sure you have continues "loops" that form an irregular polylines.

My best advice would be to use Autocad's AutoSketch drawing program, reasonably priced, and works very will with cad/cam programs........

I have a problem I am not able to work through.
I am using Turobocad pro V10 and I have a DXF file I am trying to clean up.
The problem is I can't get the lines to connect. So when I convert the file
to G code using ACE
I get a bunch of Z movements when it should make a cut in one simple pass.
You would not believe the amount of time I have spent trying to figure out
what I know shoud be
a simple thing to do. Can someone help me out here?


Thanks
