Thanks for your reply.
Backplotting sounds like what we need. I'm using a cnc router table,
not a rotary table, so maybe it will work for me.
A local boat builder brought us hundreds of parts to duplicate on
our cnc router. They have been using templates and bandsawing them.
Rather than spend the time measuring and drawing, we thought we
could use the router to generate the g-code. We could then cut the
part, but we want to be able to nest as many parts per sheet as we
can. The router will nest for us, but only with dxf files. Thus the
need for a g-code to dxf converter.
