I know this is a bit O/T but what about using cncsimulator to test G-code?

love that sig. Turbine

Did any one read the latest Popular Science magazine where they talk about Amar Bose ( The inventor of the Bose speakers and other wonderful products)

Apparently Bose who was also a teacher, was a pioneer in introducing open book exams in the 60s. He understood that memory was not the key, but understanding was.

I recommend reading the artical. It is very encouraging to read for us inventive types.

does anyone know of a good CNC handbook that provides step by step exercises on how to learn -not to make a part- but how to learn the commands...I'm here in pittsburg in class and going into conniptions because the teacher is moving way too fast for me.....please help.
