No idea what you are talking about but you make the process seem easy. I bet there is a high learning curve. Really nice work.

I would not say there is a steep learning curve, maybe a little bit of practice
If you can trace , you can create a *.dxf file then make a tool path and cut it out

I have been using these drawing boards since 2008 but its just a lot of usage to get real good at it and quick
I was never a cad person and i do such a variety I was unable to make dxf files it was a difficult learning curve, this tracing method is easy
and a lot of times no editing is required
