Have you thought about making your drawing size the same as your material size, then saving it as a template. Then you draw up your cuts on the sheet, saving the drawing each time as a template.

I'm talking about actually drawing the remnant on the table kind of like scananything but selecting the points manually. drawing remnants in cad would be quite difficult ( in most of my cases anyway) I have tried that with not much luck

remnant nesting?

Is this a future possibility or too much trouble?

Select points on a piece of scrap (remnant) on the table and import as a material size in sheetcam.
I used it a lot at my last job. would be very useful

another issue

I had to install sheetcam on a new computer. I used the post processor per Luke at CandCNC. torch comes down, touches the ohmic sensor, goes up .150 then goes another .250" roughly, then pierces, lowers some (but not to the specified cut height) and cuts. on holes it never lowers to the cut hei...

G code issue

I don't know if I changed a setting or what? when I run a new code on my plasma table (mach) the torch touches off, pierces and goes to the .060 cut height. but it stays locked there no matter the volts. If I run an older code it runs fine though.
Is there a setting somewhere?
