Ok, now who has the information needed to work on getting DXF 3D face
entity's into a G code. I can get the info out but that is as

1. Haven't done any programing since Comodore 64 days but I wonder if it
would be worthwhile somewhere down the line to add the ability to download
IGES and/or STL files from solid modelers Turbo-cad Solid Modeler for
instance ($100). It's kind of a Conversational 3D drawing program that
makes doing some 3D pretty easy. Many of these files could be designed to
be cut with 2 1/2 axis machines-

Check out www.cadem.com also about ($100) . Claims to be 'Conversational'
too probably not exactly what Ron has in mind but worth a look.
