I'm trying to make a 24" radius piec of arched moulding to go around a niche I built.
I'm trying to use two arcs 24" and 26" radius, offset by 2" and connect them. I thought this would be easy to do....NOT!
I can't seem to specify and arc angle to guarantee the two quarter circles I wanted to cut out. So I drew two big circles and tried overlaying my arcs on the circle, but the software keeps crashing after a while. Not immediately
and not every time, but always before I can finish.
I understand I'm drawing outside the board dimensions, but I was going to rotate the piece onto the board after designing it.
NOW WHAT????
I appreciate any help someone can give me.
Also, I'd like to start with pattern work, but CorelDraw X3 is pretty steep price and possibly learning curve -wise. Any lower cost alternatives that would do the job for making shading clip art?
Anyone try open source options?
