Marble maze project

Ihave been trying for over two weeks to create the tool paths (on and off) from a maaze generatoor

Maze

I have tried using inkscape to make file readable by Carbide create, but when I make the tootl paths I naver seem to get a clean cut, somwthimes the path does not cut thru for the Marble or does not cut paths at all only holes.

any and all suggestions will be welcome.

seems like ths shoud not be that hard to do.

If you can upload the resulting file from the Maze generator, if would help a lot

This page:

https://keesiemeijer.github.io/maze-generator/#generate

makes a pixel image which one can download:

(I was expecting, but didn’t find an option for an SVG)

which one can then either auto-trace:

or re-draw.

Note that making the grid match the desired spacing makes re-making this sort of thing much simpler.

Attached as a .c2d file which may be easily cleaned up

generated_maze.c2d (60 KB)

leaving only the matter of figure-ground reversal:

Note that if one halves the grid size:

One could then draw lines along the center of the path and cut out w/ a lollipop tool so as to have a maze which captures the marble, no top necessary.
