As a test, I wrote my name in DesignSparks whateverthefuckprogramitscalled, then exported it to a gerber file, then imported that to FlatCAM, which exported G Code, which I imported to this DCNC Terminal program, when then exported it via a serial connection to the controller, which then exported wood off this block of wood to make this.

The feed rate was definitely too high on the top one, so I lowered the feedrate, and gave it another go (the one I highlighted the lettters with sharpie) and turned out aight.
