    Im using tabs in vcarve pro in the tool path but theyre not showing on the ob cam? ive tried to tabs section on ob cam but it basically wont allow you to place the tabs where you want only by mm spacing.

    anyone have an idea how to adjust the tabs in either the ob cam/gcode generator or how to get them to show up from the vcarve tool path

    thanks

    I am little confused.

    Vcarve = CAM
    OpenBuildsCAM = CAM

    if you have V Carve you do not need OpenBuildsCAM. OpenBuildsCAM is the free, entry level CAM for users who dont need/cannot afford VCarve.

    Instead of using OBCAM, just setup your toolpaths (with tabs) inside VCarve:
