Hope this helps,

Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.
Anyone have any bears, moose or pine cones?

Needs some tweaking, but it's an excellent start
mini.dxf
Think some one can make this into a dxf file for me. it's for my buddy, it's his car.
Thanx
Thanks Weldtutor! Those will help.

Hello everyone,
I was wonering if anyone can draw this shield better than what I have done. I am trying to get 2 nice even lines around the shield.
Then of course I was trying to draw the same shield with a slight arc across the top of the shield pointing down. I thought this would be easy. Wish I had the old version of autocad that I used in school back in 87.
Thanks in advance.
Thank you so much...
I appreciate the help, you guys are always bailing me out.....
If there is ever anything I can do for you just holler.
I'll post pictures when I cut them.
Best Regards...
Hello Everyone,
Been working on my first sign. Looks like it's pretty "together" until I try running it on my cutting software. "Torch" will run from lower left corner to top of small "e" and freeze. When I fill it diagonal lines are drawn across it. Have tried reducing nodes and generally fooled with it for days in every other way.
Can someone please make it ready to cut or tell me what's wrong? Thanks for any help, it's been kicking my butt!

This is the Corel .cdr file of the Braun's sign. I use a Mac on the web, used Stuffit Dropstuff to create the zip file. Thanks for any help. It's a big sign, about 94 x 28."

The reason you are having problems with your dxf file is, the .cdr file has a bunch of broken vectors.
What I mean by broken vectors is (see screenshot below) the vectors are open, they need to form a continuous chain of connected nodes around each area of the drawing.
The start point & end point have got to be the same exact X & Y location to form a complete closed loop.
What will happen sometimes is that a vector drawing program will try & close the loop by creating it's own new straight line from the start to end point, If you don't close the loop on your own.
The screenshot below is zoomed in 1500% on the area that the deer nose connects to the uppercase letter "B". Notice all the wild & open end lines, that need to be closed or deleted.
Once the cdr file has all the open vectors closed, your dxf should be correct.
