    Hello,

    I have a CNC router I built a few years ago. I am upgrading it with a dragknife to cut paper and vinyl. I am wondering if anyone knows of a sketchUcam plugin to help me write g-code for this. I currently run version 1.1 of sketchUcam. Or is anyone interested in writing some?

    I have been doing vinyl for 10 plus years - surecutsalot is a nice little program 99% of vinyl cutting is vector based so anything that does vectors works as above there are plenty of plugins about
