This was such a helpful video to me. Especially the tip with MS Visual Studio and the Autodesk plug in. Thanks a lot! Can't wait to modify some posts

Might be handy to explain how to save your post to the cloud when you are in the area. That's something I've not found easily.

Thanks for posting this. Quick question. Running Fusion on a Mac is there a way to make the extensions of the GCode files default to .gcode rather than .nc ? Thanks

This is a very specific question, but does anyone know how to edit the X Carve post processor so that the tool change command is never put into the gcode? I'm using Universal Gcode Sender with my X-Carve, and always get an error from the gcode out of the post processor. I have to manually edit each gcode file to remove the T1 M6 line from the beginning of the file, and then it all runs fine. It would be cool to make that the default behavior of the post.

What is post processor and its function

[stephenpavlov]

I have no understanding of how someone is supposed to make money off of this software. It works for years then one day it won't post a program. And of course there's no support!
