Paper Tools software works with a webcam that looks at your material and cuts slots, pockets, bores, and any GCode—so you can see what you're cutting in a video view. It also lets you measure parts, export to CAD and a lot more.
I've been brewing up this project for a couple years and now I have a Centroid beta I'm happy to introduce to the this community. I'm looking for a bit of feedback and to have a bit of fun with the whole new power of the Centroid suite of tools.
As part of my own enthusiasm I'm giving away 3 free 1080p webcams along with a USB extension cable, mounting adapter and more. You can see the entire "Foundation Kit" that comes for free (normally $158) here: https://shop.papertools.ai/products/pap ... dation-kit
OK so here's the deal, to qualify I'm asking that you do these 3 things:
1. Download and install Paper Tools from here: https://www.papertools.ai/nail-your-part-position
2. Register the software for a free trial. No purchase or credit card is required, after installing use promo code: FREECAM
3. Save a single "target" by clicking "Create a new target"
- Click Create a new target in your project
I've made a new video to show some more features for Paper Tools, and I'm very happy to work with you closely to add features like the recent magnifying glass tool and Vectric SVG exporter that help make your workflows easier. My goal is to keep you "in your flow" when you're in the workshop. If you like Paper Tools you can continue using it for $8.95/month, no subscription is ever required, use it only when you need it, just for the months you use it.
Thanks to cnckeith, Andrew, Chris on the Centroid team for their help as I worked through my API questions and requests. This is the most support I've received from any company, you guys are great!
Happy Choppin!
