I have watched several of your videos and signed up for your training. I am amazed at your level of understanding of the software. You teach it like you wrote the code for the software.

[@LearnYourCNC]

Thank you for the great compliment, Wayne! It's all from lots of practice and even I learn something new every now and again😊

And the wizard strikes yet again! Good job Kyle.

[@LearnYourCNC]

Thanks Steve!

[@LouAdzima]

Thank you

How would you cut all those parts? You obviously can’t secure each one down and I would hate to deal with all those tabs (if even possible due to the tight clearance)?

[@Z-add]

Since it is true shape nesting, can it put a part inside another part. For eg put a small star inside the mouth of the smiley face?

[@Z-add]

Does it tell you how much of the sheet is wasted once all the parts are cut?

[@victorsmith311]

Thanks for this. Can´t the software rotate the individual shapes to get a better fit? I´m sure the triangles could be arranged better( one pointing up, the next pointing down) to save space.

[@tony97gt]

There’s a checkbox to rotate parts for a better fit but I’m not sure why he didn’t demonstrate that. I was thinking the same thing.

How do you nest in between 2 boundaries?

[@CisnerosShop]

Are you able to nest an object with multiple copies that you already have toolpaths set?

[@LearnYourCNC]

Yes, there is a way to do that. I can make a quick tip lesson for that situation but basically I would organize the layers and make a toolpath template connected to the layers. The it would be real simple to nest the parts and recalculate the toolpaths.

@@LearnYourCNC I kind of get the process, seeing would make the light bulb go off easier lol
