I知 trying to route Prismatic Faced Letters.
I only have V-Carve Pro and ShopBot software.
I知 trying to find someone who can take my file
(usually 1 or 2 words) and create a file that I can
cut on my machine, using a 110 degree bit.
I知 not trying to cut with a ball end bit.

I can pay with Visa Card or check or whatever
payment you prefer.

This can be on ongoing little project as my 1 man
sign shop takes orders.
The first one may require me to phone you a few
times just to make it easier.
If anyone can help, please contact me.
Or is there a company that does this?
Thanks in advance John Arnott

John,

Since you only intend to use a v-bit, you can do this yourself in V-Carve Pro...I do quite frequently. In your file, route out your letter around the outside with whatever cutter you're using(up/down/compression bit), then make another toolpath with your v-bit, cutting on your vector line, to whatever depth. You'll need to play around with it a bit to get the settings to your satisfaction, but it's not that hard to do.

Howdy John,

Send me the copy, it's size, the font and I'll guide you through the process.

Feel free to call if you like. It's been a long time since we've talked.

Joe
