Well you could start out with your brothers Autocad do some simple profiles in 2d.
Then export this as a dxf file.
There are some free dxf to gcode programs available that will generate a gcode file
from this that will run with Turbocnc.
This should get you started.
More complex parts can be made by making several simple sections and
manualy conecting them using a Text editor such as notepad or edit.
It will require more knowledge of gcode the more complex your parts become
so start with something very simple and go from there.
I don't have any expirience using bobcad, I think it would probably work but
I hear it is not a very easy program to learn. |
