This will save me some email stamps in the future ;)

NOTE: These AREN'T VP-1 plans. They're just files that make it easier to build part of a VP-1. These files won't do any good without the plans.

Here's a set of VP-1 G code, SolidWorks files, DXF's and templates for most of the 1/4" parts of a VP-1.

The Templates are PDF (manual templates for non-CNC troglodytes <lol>) and can be printed on a large format printer. They have lots of scales printed on them to verify the print isn't distorted. The "36bb" template is for 36" wide printers (print at 100%).

All of the other files need to be renamed (I had to name them PDF's so they'd upload).

The DXF's are generic files that will load in most CAD and CAM software.

The NC's are G Code. They might need some tweaking to work on different CNC machines.

The SLDPRT's are SolidWork files. They should work on SW 2014 and newer.
