I'm sure he'll have to rebuild his machine with an imperial tape measure before he can cut it! ....
Be carefull Clive, if you do cut imperial gcode on a metric machine then you need to set up an imperial material to suit.

Yes you were right but I found one lurking in the dust and managed to setup up the machine.

Thanks. Would you mind posting dxf file for it and then it can be scaled. I am having trouble with my vintage tape.
