File Preparation
In order to use any of the machines in the DFL you will need a file. The staff will often reference a "good file." A good file is one which meets the requirements of the machine necessary to convey the information from your file effectively. With Digital Fabrication Equipment, files are either right or wrong, there is not a lot of leeway. It is very important that you follow the instructions provided in these documents carefully.
