Pushed a few updates to PureCutCNC this week — version 0.0.3 is out.


STL model operations are now in a first usable state — you can import a 3D model and get rough and finish toolpaths out of it. Still early but it works.


Recursive V-Carve got some attention too — smoother Z transitions through letters and fewer unnecessary retractions. Carving text should feel a bit cleaner now.


Added rest machining for edge routes, so you can follow up a first pass with a smaller tool on what's left.


GrblHAL is now a supported post-processor export target.


There were also a handful of UI improvements and fixes along the way — nothing dramatic, just things that were a bit rough around the edges getting tidied up.


Lots still to do, but making steady progress. Feedback always welcome.

I’m working on an open-source project called PureCutCNC, and I just pushed version 0.0.2. It is still in the very early stages, but I’m excited to keep the momentum going.

The goal is to create a clean, accessible CNC control interface. This update focuses on editing functionality, new and improved operations, path optimization, improved DXF/SVG import, UI improvements, user guide and quick start.

I’m doing this as a passion project, so if you have a moment to look at the documentation or the application, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Browser version is the easiest to start with the app. Preview of the desktop versions is also available in the downloads section.

Thanks for looking!
