Hello, I just like building things and am gathering info to eventually do a cnc retrofit on a mill. Great sight by the way.

Hi all

Cnc Programmmer, Machinist, Process devoloper for both turning and milling at a pneumatic cyclinder company in the midwest. Still using SmartCam as of now, but that should all change in the new year. Joined this group to pay attention to the discussions in the Cam forums and eventually ask some questions as we get closer to making a decision on what software to purchase. Enjoy reading the posts and picking up some new ideas and info now and again.

Hi all,

I have been lurking and occasionally posting since the summer. I have a CNC foam cutter of my own design and am currently working on a modified Routezilla from Cranky's plans. I am also gathering together information on tool path algorithms so I can write my own router software........eventually. :-).

Icon, & all the others i'm not mentioning, we're not going to laugh at you when post questions. There's a lot of knowledgible members on this site that's eager to share their vast knowledge....all you have to do is post!
Remember this place is the home of people with an interest in cnc, software etc, etc. I do not categorize (pardon my spelling!) between pro's & "greenies"!!!!

Keep on posting!

Paul here. from Cardiff, Wales
I've just purchased mach2 and modified an old small spark eroder with steppers and a bosch router. Unfortunately my two and a half year old twins dont let me go in the garage enough!
Just having fun watching it cut. Thanks for all the help i've discovered on this forum.

Hi there to you all. I am a manufacturing engineer. I build custom packaging machinery. I am working on a plasma table at my shop at home. I need some help with my stepper drivers.

I was an IT manager from 97-02 with a good pay scale. Have 14 years in the computer field, and many certifications under my belt. Some IT jobs are going overseas, and the others are being given to new graduates that will do the job for less. The market is flooded with with new IT people. ( I could go on but won't )

I have given up looking for work in that field, since I am unwilling to relocate, and sick of working for tyrants. I'm currently persuing machining now as my own endeavor, based on an idea that came to me while attempting to empty a keg. The learning curve is a challenge, but it's coming along.

This is a great site, seems to have a lot of friendly knowledgeable people I have learned quite a bit in the two days I have spent reading all the threads. My girlfriend is not happy, but i'm OK with this.

Thanks to all,
Kenny
