How to Keep Dimensions Inclined in 2D?

Hi, how can I keep the exact dimensions of this sloping line to be processed 2d at cnc? I tried to project it on a flat surface, but it didn’t work out. Thank you


Hi Augustin -

In which way did it not work out?
Can you post the relevant objects in a 3dm file here?
-wim

I can’t post the file here. I used the Squish command but the shape is different from the sloping one.

What are you actually trying to do? I don’t think you should be trying to squish or project anything, you just want a curve? Sorry it’s very hard to figure out what you need…

I want the green, inclined part to be processed 2d at cnc at the same size and shape. I also used the UNROLL command, but I don’t know if it will give me the correct dimensions.

You want to orient that green surface on to the Z=0 plane? UnrollSrf would do it, but you can do a few Rotate operations, or use the Orient3Pt command…

Or do you want a straight projection from the top of the surface?
