SVG to CNC Inlay Toolpath | Blender CAM Intarsia G-Code Workflow
Convert your SVG designs into custom CNC wood inlays (intarsia) using Blender CAM!
In this video I'm showing how you can easily turn any SVG graphics into a nice inlay using a CNC machine. It only takes a couple of minutes to set everything up in Blender and you are good to go, the toolpath is calculated both for the pocket and the outline
You’ll learn how to:
• Import an SVG into Blender and set up your inlay design
• Use Blender CAM add-on to create precise toolpaths for intarsia
• Generate CNC-ready G-Code tailored for carving inlay pieces
Ideal for woodworkers and hobbyists looking to leverage free software for detailed inlay carving using your CNC.
