    Default converting an MPC to a pattern

    I'm Finally able to get back to carving after about a year due to medical reasons. Ive been working on some MPC's that I made and would like to turn them into patterns so I can make images out of them or STL's but ive forget how to do that or if its possible to go from MPC to PTN.

    An MPC is made up of patterns. You can extract the patterns from an MPC - the icon the looks like a folder with a shell on it.

    If your design is all elements that you have created, not someone's patterns or drawings, group everything, select all and the make pattern tool should come up.

    Thank you. With your help I finally figured it out. I forgot about having the carving list showing. Once I did that I was able to select all and group it to produce a pattern. Thank you for jogging my memory.
