John Stevenson:
So as not to hi-jack the reprap thread i have started a new one.

First of all read this post.

http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=18727.0

Forget all the naysayers what I'm interested in is doing the same but in say 3mm slices and getting a DXF of each slice.
Tried to contact Matt but no reply.
Also had a look at slic8r program but can't see how to get a DXF as opposed to a reprap G -Code.

Any clues guys ?

John,
As a thought to your query, there is a guy on cnczone that has a program gcode2dxf (or something like that) that will take a gcode and produce a dxf file from it.

Ah, here is his site:

Just a thought

Rob.Wilson:
I think JS is after a program that takes a 3D solid file and slices it and is able to save the slices as a DXF file so he can use the DXF file in what ever  CAM program to create a G code file

is a close  :palm:

Check out "Autodesk 123D Make" might be along the lines your are looking?
