This tip and trick was included at the User Group Meeting in 2015 held in the UK (Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire) and US ( Las Vegas, Nevada).
In this video we look at a technique using the Two Rail Sweep function to create a constant height letter with a varying cross section. The method for this involves constructing a vector centreline for the letter then offsetting this to create the inner rail for the shape. In the video we construct all the vectors then show the process to accurately position the cross sections to make the 2-Rail Sweep shape correctly. We conclude the video by creating the toolpaths to cut it.
