well I did take a machine shop course in the county college, but that was just using manual bridgeports and manual logan engine lathes. We never did cnc stuff so that's why I was looking to get a small cnc for my home use to learn on.
the swing description you gave still leaves me a bit confused... I'm trying to see how this relates to the piece of bar stock turning in the lathe? or is the swing just talking about the distance the turret with the cutting tools can move along the X and Z axis? |
