File type
I have a charity project I'd like to do using a CNC machine to cut the wood out but I wanted to know what type of file they typically use. Currently I have the shape in a vector .eps (Adobe Illustrator) which I can convert to .dxf file
Can many use this .dxf file? I understand that .stl might be the file type required?
If anyone can give me any advice I'd be grateful.

STL is for 3D fileshow come a 10mm peg dont fit in a 10mm hole
