 +===== Generating GCODE =====
 +
 +You can't generate GCODE on your version of vCarve Pro even with the Makerspace ID set up.  You will want to save your VCarve file (.crv) to a USB drive or Cloud Storage and open it on the CNC computer.  From there you will open it in VCarve Pro on that computer and save the GCODE as you normally would to be opened in Mach 3
