Dinosaur skeleton, and other models, DXF files.

How do you use the "fonts"? I am not familiar with that format.

Thanks,

Download the fonts and install them into your Windows font folder.
Then open your CAD program and insert text. Male sure you select the Dono font as your text. You will then see a skeleton. You can upsize or downsize it to what ever suits. You will need to edit the slots to suit your material thickness and your router bit of choice.

Cool. Thanks ynneb.

I'm about to try and upload a Triceratops and a Spinosaurus to the Downloads section. Both files are BMP's for general use. There are two files for each dino.

Make them JPG files or Gif files.
BMPS are unnecesarily large in file size.
Use the free program Irfanview to convert them.
Put them in the Photo gallery instead of the downloads section.
Thanks

Thanks Benny, I just found that out when 'the Zone' spat the dummy and didn't accept the files. I'm working on them at present, cleaning them up & converting them to DXF, so I'll upload them then. They may be of more use to more people that way.

From Wagner's post (#17):

http://www.epiloglaser.com/mammoth.htm Mammoth in cdr and ai-format

Here's the .CDR (CorelDraw) file converted to .DXF for the "Woody" Mammoth. Click on the above link for the original file and/or to see the assembled model. I'm still working on my JGRO build and am not to the point where I can butcher any wood (yet!). Maybe someone else can give it a go and post pictures of the assembled beast. I'm thinkin', that maybe, Ynneb's raptor needs a playmate.
