Open Vector toolpath

[Pops2 (Ken)]

Can someone explain how to create a toolpath for an open vector. I’ve seen it mentioned a few times suggesting adding one but never an explanation on how to do so.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Pops2,

With an open vector pretty much the only toolpath you can do (and that is useful) is a Contour toolpath with “No offset” selected, to just follow the vector

Or is your question maybe how to handle a vector that happens to be open but you would like it closed to use e.g. a V-carve or pocket toolpath ?

You were correct with the 1st answer. Really appreciate it.
