I created a DXF model using SolveSpace and tried to generate some toolpaths using PyCAM. I added some cutters and created two engraving processes. When I tried to export the toolpaths, I received this error dialog:

An unexpected exception occoured: please send the text below to the developers of PyCAM. Thanks a lot!

    The speed of expansion has been a surprise, states Dr Dre. "I had no notion when we started out that it would get this massive."
