Hi there i'm an absolute beginner to cnc work
I've made my machine and It works fine using mach 3
I've been doing engraving in brass using the write wizard.
However I want to make some small engraved logo's to put on items of woodwork i make.
What do I need to take a hand drawn (in biro) logo and convert it to a toolpath to engrave in brass
Is it something that mach 3 can do?
so I could scan the artwork and then? what software do I need?
I want the logos to look hand drawn ( not perfect like cad files would be)
Thanks in advance for any help
