Hello All, Does anyone know of a decent GCode Simulator for free or very very low price that is simular to VCarve Desktop ?
I looked at VCarve Desktop , i just cant spend 350$ right now on this .

I’ve been using CAMotics… seems like a good sim.

Fusion360 will sim as well.

ChiliPeppr works well for quick previews, and only needs a browser.
Is there a particular feature you are looking for?

  • Time Estimates?
  • Material Preview?

Check out GRBLGRU. It lets you build your entire machine to visualize and verify the full mechanics of the system, not just a tool path.

Yup. The Inventables forum is improperly modifying & characters, converting them to & for HTML, which is breaking the URL.
