    Always looking for new things to do with my CNC and improvements to make.
    It also helps to get feedback on things I've done.

    There's so much combined knowledge here, that i learn a lot just from reading threads from top to bottom!
    I'm sometimes amazed on what some of the members achieve building their own machines, the designs some come up with & how these gets excecuted!

    This place is heaven for likeminded people!

    I see what others are doing and "Borrow" their solutions to challenges, plus there are so many knowledgeable people here who will gladly help out answering questions and researching ways to accomplish almost anything in CNC or related subjects. Besides every once in a while you get to show off something you created to people who actually appreciate it. Ron

    2 reasons
    1- I am building a small 3 axis machine with my nephew and this forum is about the best source of info around.
    2 - I am in charge of a couple of NC operators professionally and this forum helps me to speak the same language.

    The members cover a broad spectrum, from newbies, to seasoned professionals.
    The use of CNC equipment isn't merely a lump of cast iron (or MDF in some cases) sitting on the shop floor. The software & eletronics are the tools/ or bridge from which ideas cross from imagination to the tangible. And with members from so varied backgrounds & from so many places, the imaginations do run WILD! Always something interesting!

I have been reading alot of threads over the past month on different designs and types so that my first CNC machine will be a success . I'm learning more from the people contributing to this site than a hundred books could do. Thanks everyone.

    I come here to learn, contribute, and troubleshoot with others. I like to search keywords that pertain to the many aspects of cnc and electronics. Thankfully, people are willing to share tricks of the trade to help others get started. After all, what would the internet be without contributing people.

    Default Why?

    I'm learning a new hobby from lots of points of view. I've never found a single place where so many like minded individuals can get together and share information. Not only is the level of knowledge high, but it's availability to all who ask, member and non member alike is plainly visible. If all education was this dynamic schools would truly be revered centers for personal development rather than the societal warehousing many seem to be headed for at breakneck speed. Excuse me, I digress....

    Thank you for the wonderful exchange of information, and may this site always be so....

    I use the site for research to see if other people have experienced similar machining problems or have used machines I may be looking to purchase.
