Incorporating dxf file in design - help/advice needed

[cropwell]

Thanks again Wal, but I could do with knowing what you did exactly as I have several other designs to do the same with in the near future. I think the software I have doesn't handle these files properly as I get errors when saving them as .dwg in AutoCAD. I have also tried Inkscape with similar results.

The design is a bit off to two sides, so I may correct that if I re-cut, but my wife is OK with that imperfection.

Cheers,

Rob

Rob, I use Adobe Illustrator - I just opened up your files, plonked them into one and re-saved in those two formats. I wonder if the decorative scroll vectors were that big they simply went beyond the canvas in estlcam? I've never used that software so can't offer any meaningful advice beyond that..

Job done !

Humbrol enamel takes an age to dry. Then I cleaned up with 1500 wet and dry and finished with 2500 to give a matt look to it.

Now I need to put it behind the switch !

Nice one Rob.
