Heres the start of Dave's list of great MC resources.
1. "tips for manufacturing" 4th axis tutorial video 5hrs. (website of the same name, just take the spaces out) goes over indexing, 4th axis wrap, and full 4th toopath generation. Has vertical and horizontal instruction, two included posts for fanuc, a section on post modification. Goes over setup in the software and the machine, as well as saftey issues / avoiding crashes. 175$ was money well spent.
2. the mill book that comes with the sofware is really informative as well, sometimes does not explain why parameters are set the way they are though in going through the tutorial.
I have three other books that just arrived, I'll review in the coming weeks.
