    HI. Newbie here.

    Im making a sign sketch for cnc router.

    I have to make akrylic letters from thick acryl that comes trough the holes in aluminium sign.

    If i try to make these letters for the holes in the sign bigger, the acrylic letters vil hit corners of the holes.

    Is there any easy way to make letters thicker in specific amount?

    Only way that i have succeeded is to make the stroke fat enough and do the "outline to path" but then i cant separate them two paths from each other and make the hole path in its own draving. (yes you can delete nodes from other path, but that takes too much time, there must be easier way)
