Milling the center of the outline #1348

Open gnurc opened 4 years ago

gnurc commented 4 years ago

Hello,

When I run the job the spindle is milling on the edge, How can I make it go through the center? As if it were a single line.

Is it possible to do it with bCNC or is it done when I generate the gerber file?

Best regards

Hi again,

I changed the cut bit diameter in pcb2gcode to 2mm and now look better.

But if I executed profile out and cut

Is it possible to cut it and make it look like in the first image?

Why do you want to do that? I guess choosing a thin track width in pcbgcode generates the path you want

Curiosity, I thought it was better but I tried and cut well in one pass. You are right is enough so.
