Can I use BlenderCAM to generate a Gcode file opened later with WinPC-NC (USB interface Full Version) ?
Hello,
As hobby, i intend to buy a Stepcraft 420 with USB Interface Full Version to make small decorative panels in wood (oak or linden).
The 3d drawing is made with Blender and exported as 3d surface (.stl file).
Some time ago, I have discovered the BlenderCAM (free) software with this video from Daniel Bachmann:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xolIz1VpgxQ
With the guidance of this video, I have been able to create a Gcode file with Post processor selected as : Win-PC.
Here are the first lines of the .din created file :

(G-code generated with BlenderCAM and NC library)

Do you think i can open such a Gcode file with WinPC-NC (USB interface Full Version) to make a 3d milling on a Stepcraft 420 ?
Your comments are welcome.
Best regards,
Norbert

Norbert: You may receive help from forum members with more experience than me, but this I can tell you...
The fact that you could produce what appears to be a working GCode file, I could almost bet you will have no trouble importing it into WIN-PC. The post-processor I received with my StepCraft ST2-600 a short time ago came with UCCNC. After having spent a great deal of time w/ UCCNC (latest version), I was able to bring in ANY kind of GCode. While it is my understanding that WIN-PC is a bit lighter weight than UCCNC, it should serve you well. In fact, you have aroused my curiosity such that I intend to download BlenderCAM and try it's output with my configuration. Will let you know.

Thank you very much for your answer, SFDeeJay.
I am happy to see that it is most probably possible to use BlenderCAM with WinPC-NC.
Very kind of you to share the result after you test with BlenderCAM.
Best regards,
Norbert
