    I have ran across this before but have just went on to the next project in line but I really want to build the Twins Cargo Plane by FoamandTape, but I keep getting empty code files.

    I place the safe area tool over the parts, set my parameters then generate code. It says all is well and there is a file but when I try to load it to cut, it is empty of parts. :?

    Seems I have seen something about this before but I can't find it.

    Thanks for any help!!!!

    Perhaps your parts are made into components? The best thing to do is explode your parts when they are in the safe area box.

    :oops:

    Even newbier than that 3DMON, the files I had success with already had cut paths and tabs placed, the ones that I failed with didn't, you can do the math :oops: .

    Pretty steep learning curve with this awesome equipment. My PP is running really well!!

    By the way 3DMON the first plane I had great success was the Lil Ripper and I love it, your files cut right out of the box for me!!! And it is just the right size and speed to fly right outside my front door so it gets a lot of air time :p

    Of course my pink FF version is not even in the same ballpark with the awesome paint on the original.


    Thanks :doubleup: two thumbs up!

    Glad to hear the Lil Ripper has treated you well.
