Hi all,

Have any of you created 3.125" instrument templates in AutoCad or Vector Works
or any other cad program where files can be exported in dxf format? I'm
finishing up my panel layout on my Mac using Vector Works and will be sending
the final layout in dxf format to a local machine shop for laser cutting.
Trouble is, I seem to be having some difficulty perfecting the cutout for
typical altimeters and rate-of-climb which have the irregular cutout in the
lower left corner. Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks

Angier Ames

ps. Marv, Noah's coster.xls file seems to have a file format which is
unrecognizable to Excel. When unzipped, Excel would not open this file. Also,
email to Noah was returned as undeliverable.


[1... I'll send you an ACAD R12/LTv2 compatible .DXF file of that altimeter
cutout via private email.  Let me know how it works out.

2... The file currently on the site from Noah, when unzipped, opens
fine for me with the Excel that came with Office97 SR-1.

3... Neither I nor the LML seems to have any problem with Noah's email
address.  (I just retested a reply to his most recent post and he replied
to me immediately.)  Please try it again using the reply function to
insure that the email address is pulled directly from his submitted post.

I hope this helps.    <Marv>          ]
