Download the Project Toolpath Macro: https://ko-fi.com/s/4dd66f5db6 Do you want to project CAM toolpaths onto solids or meshes in FreeCAD? This macro is perfect for 3D surfaces, meshes, reliefs, and multiple faces objects where the Z-Correct Dressup fails. Download the Only Edges Macro: https://ko-fi.com/s/e5b7381036 In this video, I show how to use a FreeCAD CAM macro to project existing toolpaths onto real geometry, whether you're working with solids or imported meshes. Why projected toolpaths matter in FreeCAD CAM How the macro works (and what it actually changes) Projecting toolpaths onto solids Projecting toolpaths onto meshes When to use this instead of native Path operations This workflow is especially useful for: 3D carving & relief machining Mesh-based CAM (STL workflows) Fixing toolpaths that don’t follow curved surfaces CNC routing, engraving, and artistic CAM jobs If you’re using FreeCAD for CAM and fighting with 3D geometry, this macro can save hours.
