JWCD, I've received my "Easy CNC" and find it very good for pulling this stuff together. The author focuses on the products he feels met the "Easy CNC" criteria (sp?).I'm about halfway thru the book and it's just starting to give me overload only because I haven't been able to put it down.
In the book David Benson decided to use Corel Draw Essentials for artistic stuff, Autosketch CAD, and DeskCNC. Desk CNC does the G code and interprets for controls. His explanations of gettting the software working together is very much step-by-step.
The beginning of the book explained writing G code, very informative.
I've been real happy with the book |
