Yvan<p>Any recommendations for <a href="https://toot.ale.gd/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> apps to send <a href="https://toot.ale.gd/tags/GCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GCode</span></a> and generally control a <a href="https://toot.ale.gd/tags/CNC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CNC</span></a> router via USB? I used to have my desktop plugged into it, but now they're in different rooms and I don't have a USB cable that long lol.</p><p>Google Play seems to be increasingly garbage at finding good apps... top search result is Genmitsu from Sain NeXT, which I presume may be something from Sain Smart. Might give it a go.</p>
Dawn Tåke 🌙 :sparkletrans:<p>Hello all,</p><p>At work we got a Carvey by Inventables CNC machine from our IT department. We thought this was really cool and we'd get good use out of it. Until we saw what the annual subscription to Easel Pro is. That's....not an insignificant portion of our annual program budget. IT was like "lolno" at paying for a sub.</p><p>So I'm looking for free/near free alternatives.</p><p>Is the base <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/STL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>STL</span></a> files? If so, <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Inkscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Inkscape</span></a> is the best for those? What about for making the <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/gCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gCode</span></a>? I saw <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/CNCJs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CNCJs</span></a>, but I don't know. This is beyond my limited expertise with with 3D printing.</p><p>Thanks for any help.</p><p><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Carvey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Carvey</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/inventables" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inventables</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/CNC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CNC</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/CAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CAM</span></a></p>

Richard "mtfnpy" Harman (he/him)<p>This fella on youtube, abom79; I've been watching his videos for a year or two now.
