Hi community,

Thanks to the help of several members, I’ve been able to upgrade my machine and it’s now working better than ever. So I wanted to give something back.

I mainly use Fusion 360 to create my toolpaths, but I noticed I couldn’t easily use multiple tools within a single G-code file. Fusion360 requires saving each operation as a separate .ngc file. To streamline my workflow, I wrote a small Python script that merges all the generated .ngc files back into one file.

To be clear: I’m still quite inexperienced with CNC (this is just a hobby for me), but I am a software developer—so any feedback or improvements are very welcome! I’m still testing and iterating, but maybe it’s already useful for some of you.

You can find the project here:
github.com/npostma/GSeam/

don't really remember, maybe 1 minute, but a USB blaster for 5USD is worth it

You can build from source by following the instructions here:

github.com/LinuxCNC/mesaflash

As for the Linuxcnc version I doubt whether 2.1 could be built on a recent linux distro due to python issues.
