I just purchased a K40 laser machine. I will be doing all sorts of art and design projects on mine as well. However, I do my illustrations on Adobe Illustrator and work on my images on Adobe Photoshop. Would you happen to know if using these two Adobe products to create my art and designs can work independently from having to use Inkscape? Or do I still need to use Inkscape to communicate with the K40's software...I'll be using the K40 Whisperer and not the standard LaserDraw. Thank you so much for the video, and giving us more ideas for creating projects!
You can save a SVG or DXF files from Illustrator and then import this on K40Whisperer. You don't need Inkscape - although it's a great program and it would be worthwhile to have a look at it. 😉
@@WayofWood thank you 🙏🏼 I have been reading the forum on Inkscape and read how Adobe products add extra code onto their own files. This causes, in some cases, sort of a delay in performance of the K40. I’m also thinking that in extreme vector graphics loaded with anchor points the K40’s processing board might have a hard time digesting the amount of data to process too. One of the things that I liked reading on Inkscape was how their software, at the present time, doesn’t code your files. So I’m thinking that their files might be leaner and probably give the K40 the files to perform a better performance. I’m going to play with both software applications, Adobe and Inkscape and see which one performs most efficiently. After reading up on the specs for Inkscape, I think that they are going to be able to handle higher tolerances than the Adobe files 🤔 But again, Thank You 🙏🏼 so much for your help!
Nice work
Thank you!

Have fun with the laser. If Illustrator doesn't work Inkscape will be able to convert the SVG...
That's really nice! Now i just need a laser cutter to try all of those ideas. 😁
The K40 costs less than 400€ ... its the right time of the year to treat yourself. 😏
Where to get all that templat for k40 wishper software
All the templates are available for download from my website (link in the description).
Sehr schön! Vielen Dank!
