    Hi

    I have been trying to outline the attached image in red so I can cut it out with the laser. Everything I try results in out lining all the image in red. Any help would be gladly appreciated.

    Thanks

    It's a lot of work. First, get rid off all paths inside the borders. Then check outsides paths has not gaps, give them the same direction (i.e. clockwise) and combine all. Then use LaserWeb software "laser cut outside" option.
    Or:

    Copy and paste the parts of paths forming the outside, trim as necessary, and try in your software.
