Thanks for the interest and ideas.....
There are approx about 80 parts, some small, some large...it would takes me weeks to plot the shape jogging the machine. The curves require a lot of points to accurately re-create the shape.
Is there something like an pointer or edge finder?.. somethiing that you can just lay down and trace the shape by following the edges?....
The new Palm Pilots have something very similar but on a smaller scale... you write on a pad and the shapes/letters are loaed into the computer... it uses an X Y recognition software.
