looking for Help, willing to pay

Here is the dxf from an Inkscape auto trace. You would import your image file to Inkscape, then use "Path/Trace Bitmap" to convert to vector format, and finally export as dxf. Now open with Sheetcam to create your cut paths and g-code.

Re: looking for Help, willing to pay
One other thing to point out is before you leave Inkscape you should put bridges to connect the closed loops in letters so they will not drop out. Unless you are going to cut the parts out for a layered sign. If you use the search function in the upper right you can find other posts here with tutorials on Inkscape showing how to do many things with Inkscape.

Hey man i appreciate that help. I guess my issue was not being able to get fine lines with trace bitmap and the cut outs were to close. This is great information, thanks buddy
