Is it possible to flatten a slab without using vcarve and just go directly into CNC 12? If so, how is this done?

You can also use the built-in intercon to do it right in CNC12, but probably faster and more intuitive through eric’s tool or fusion. I just keep a generic slabbing file going in fusion and change the stock as needed, takes 30 seconds to input desired stock dimensions and post.
