I made a pen-holder to attach to the SCARA robot Z-axis shaft and used it to draw some hilbert curves. The python script to generate the gcode is pretty easy and I’ve put it in a github repository

Wow trying to contact you is difficult.
I have interest in using FreeCad for Vcarving. I just recently bought a onefinity for entertainment in retirement but in real life I am an mech engineer who writes software for other engineers to use
I read your posts elsewhere and you were having issues with https://github.com/aewallin/openvoronoi
But I find no details on what the issues were.
Actually, I’m pretty easy to reach. I’m on twitter, youtube, and very active on the FreeCAD forum.
I did an initial implementation of a vcarve operation in FreeCAD. It worked well but openvoronoi had packaging issues that never got resolved. I believe it had to to with Python3 compatibility. No matter. In the meantime, one of the other developers wrapped boost voronoi code and the operation has been completely rewritten to not require openvoronoi anymore.
It has been merged into the FreeCAD master branch for 0.19 as of about two weeks ago. https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/3978
If you’re not running 0.19, you really need to try it. We’re getting close to a full release but there are binary packages available daily.
