📐 Dive into the world of geometric patterns and custom text with this comprehensive Vectric lesson! Kyle demonstrates how to create intricate designs using the array copy tool, measure distances for precise offsets, and customize patterns with text. Learn essential techniques for grouping and trimming vectors, validating designs for errors, and exploring various toolpath options like V-carving and pocketing. This lesson also covers practical tips for managing layers, ensuring clean cuts, and troubleshooting common software issues. Discover how to transform simple shapes into complex, personalized projects, perfect for unique carvings and epoxy inlays.
Correction for the confusion at the beginning of this lesson. These are the settings that the Array Copy should have been set to. Sorry for the confusion!
