#165: Vectorizing Small Physical Objects into Shapes

Ready to turn your real-world treasures into CNC masterpieces? Check out this Vectric tutorial where we grab a good ol’ wrench and show you all the ways to get its shape ready for some serious CNC action. We'll walk you through bitmap tracing, manual tracing, and even some slick automatic tracing with tools like the Shaper Trace tool – talk about options!

In this lesson, we're making a custom wrench holder that'll snugly fit in your toolbox. And hey, we'll even spill some secrets on getting that vector just the right size. Whether you’re into CNC routing, laser burning, or 3D printing, these tracing techniques are golden. Imagine creating perfect-fit holders for your tools, custom gears, or even replicating a vintage part – the possibilities are endless. So, roll up your sleeves and let's get tracing!
