Rhinocam fretslots- super easy curved fretslots using engrave functions

Think I found another solution other that editing gcode. Still dirty like the easel pro gcode. Averages about 150 gcode lines per fret, compared to on 25 line for the arc commands. But this saves me so much time and easily flexible. Generated curved segments, exports to carbide post processor. I also ran a test on the main pocket. Looked amazing clean. Can simulate within rhino. Create boundaries within rhino. Meshcam you have to really eyeball the boundaries. Trying to see if I can set up relative points. I think i’ll use the gcode from here, saves me time fooling with meshcam. Although i love meshcam it’s a bit limited and doesn’t do fret slots. Also tried Gwizard, works nicely when converting to relative points, just got to make sure you add the g91 relative coordinates command in gcode.
