How To Setup The Post Processor in Vectric Vcarve, Aspire & Cut2D - IDC Woodcraft

This video tells you how to set up the post processor in Vectric Vcarve, Aspire & Cut2D so you can have your design software write te g code for your CNC router projects.

This video refers to the version 11 release of the Vectric design software. If you have version 10 or less, follow the same steps. The difference is you will not have to open the pop-up menu to populate the post processor

The proper post processor is required to run your specific CNC router, whether it's a Bobs CNC, Sienci Labs Longmill MK2, Shapeoko, Onefinity, Laguna, Avid, Shop Sabre, Phantom CNC, etc.

Every CNC router or any CNC machine for that matter must have a post processor so the design software knows how to write the g-code so your CNC machine can run your CNC woodworking project properly.

This video explanation is for Vectric Cut2d Desktop, Cut2D Pro, Vcarve Desktop, Vcarve Pro, and Vectric Aspire

Thanks Garrett. My employer has just recently bought a CNC. This video has helped me a lot in preparation for when the CNC is installed.

[fredjohn]

Thanks Garrett, brilliant video. I've spent hours trying to get my Wincnc to work, thanks for your help, no one else tell you all this, Your The Man!

[MrFoxtar]

Thank you, Garrett, You have become my go-to instructor while learning Vcarve software. Thank you very, very much.

[williampeterson]

I am going to purchase Vectric Cut2D 11.5 for my home build cnc. I am sure your instuctions will get my grbl controller working now. Thanks again Garrett. You have helped ever so much.😊

[frankbudde]

Garrett, Thank You for sharing the information and making us just a little bit smarter. It also puts the fun back in wood working.
You are a God send.

[johnforeman]

Wasn't what I was after, but in watching your video I was able to figure out what I needed, so thanks! I was adding M commands to my post processor to automate a relay that runs my vacuum.

Thanks CNC brother!
I have been struggling for weeks with designing a couple of projects only to save the tool paths and then not being able to find them!😮. I finally watched this and the light bulb went off 🎉. I have spent at least 80 hrs…..seems like…..working on VCarve pro and have yet cut anything!
If I did find files they were saved as .tap and my gsender was reading them as very small fractions of inches. I hope now I’m on a trail that will get me very productive very soon.
I have watched so many videos by you and others trying to figure this out. Along the way I have definitely learned a lot and now I think this will be fun!

Thank you
PatCarl

Just setting up my new Longmill, thanks for the information.

[tonytillman]

Saved me again! I just started the CNC journey, bought the X-Carve, and learned Easel pretty well, but wanted to upgrade to V-Carve, downloaded it, started designing, and plugged in my X-CARVE... Nothing! LOL Did some searching on Youtube, found this video first, and in 16 minutes I was all set. Thank you! Also, your bits are amazing!

[scottingham]

Just learning Cut2D Desktop, your instruction was very helpful.

[tomcombs]

Thank you this is the first understandable explanation of how to add the pp!!!

[edzinator]

Thanks Garret, I feel better knowing its that easy, I was having trouble due to having the trial version on a part I designed, so i'm sure it will be fine in the full version.

[marcadrian]

Thanks Garrett, you make it easy to follow and saved me a lot of time.

[thelfordlacan]

Thanks so much Bob. I got it clear and sharp.

[gmyzcko]

I spent 3 hours watching your love symbol video to get it right and then couldn't figure out how to get it to my longmill. Thank you for this video.
