I am shooting to win the award for most basic question of the year. I am using ArtCam version 3 these days. I word searched the forum but didn't see any discussions about something this basic. I would guess that I am at about "B" in learning the ABC's of this cool machine.
I am starting to use our Shopbot more these days but I cannot figure out how to nest my parts. When I hit the nest button it stacks the parts on top of each other with about an inch overlap. I have a customer who wants me to cut out his letters for his sign making business so I now have a reason to get off my butt and learn this machine. Letters seem to be easy, I can just type them out in a line. But I used my machine to cut out some curvy tabletops that we needed and wanted to use the nesting feature instead of just running multiple part cutting actions.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
