Setting up the maslow as a machine
Use these settings for the Maslow as a machine. You need to do this so that tools setup for your machine are saved for the maslow, and not the ooznest.
Sheet setup
Use these settings on the left hand side to setup the work area. Choose your own sheet dimensions, sheet depth and material. We are using 9mm full sheet of MDF. There's no real reason not to use a full sheet. You must click OK before you can import.
Importing DWG/SVG etc
Click the import option. If it is greyed out, it is because you have not clicked OK for the sheet material section.
Occasional errors
If you get this, ignore.
moving items
Use the transform items to centre your piece onto the material.
once imported, it'll look something like this, but with your design.
Show Toolpaths
Click "toolpaths" and select the "show toolpaths tab"
and select profile toolpath
