Export g-code from CamBam. Load into Mach3. Zero X, Y and Z axis in relation to part. Press Cycle Start.
Sorry to be vague, but try to ask more specific questions. I'd rather answer 1000 questions then write a book.

My question is specific, I absolutely have NO CLUE how to transfer it over, nor use mach.
You first need to learn how to get g-code from CamBam. I've never used it, so can't help there.

Oh okay, Thanks for your help. Anyone else?
Why don't you use Lazy Cam? It is automatically posting GCode to mach 3 and it is simple in use.
I've never heard CamBam, but theoretically there must be the way, to save Gcode in .txt file, or just copy it from CAMBAM, and then go to Mach3, there in Program Run Menu you'll see a button EDIT GCODE, press it, then the empty txt document will open, you can PASTE the GCODE there, save this document, then in the same menu press another button LOAD GCODE, there choose .txt file format and open the saved document! Thats all... You can repeat this last step, if you've saved the GCODE from CAMBAM directly in .txt format!
