Hi everyone, I am fairly new to CNCing. I use Carbide Create and i’m wondering if somone can help me fix/convert an STL file to be able to use on the CNC machine. I’ve been trying to duplicate it so I can make an SVG but I haven’t had any luck.
Any help is appreciated. I can provide the files as well.
