Have you tried zoo cad (formerly kittycad)?. It may be still too early but worth keeping your eye on.
No, but it looks interesting, thanks! Kind of like OpenSCAD with Copilot.
I've tried multiple times to get into freecad but the ux is just not for me. One time I also lost like 3 hours of work so I called it quits.
Now I usually use solvespace, though that only does 3D modeling, no CAM, ...
Solvespace can export g-code. It's in the file menu, export 2d section or something. Select file type g-code.
This is an area I'd like to improve a lot when I get back to working on it!
Ohh I didn't know that, thanks for letting me know.
Although I won't use it because I do 3d printing and use prusa slicer.
To be fair, SolveSpace is tiny, capable, and pretty nifty overall. Maybe I should spend another 30 minutes to learn it again, as I forgot everything I learned the first time around, years ago.
I love solvespace. It's a wonderful program. But I don't think I've ever been able to make a complete model of something I needed without running into model breaking NURBs errors. Maybe there's a list of known gotchya's that most users know to avoid in their modeling, but for me it seems to break on very trivial things so I've never been able to use solvespace as a tool. Which is sad, because otherwise, I quite like it.
I'd like to switch 5 FreeCAD just because then I can save the files to my computer, but the UI is too different from Fusion/OnShape.
