• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

I have a 20x30 shop out back now for 25 years. Although electrician/control tech by trade I love to fab things whether metal or wood. I got a desktop CNC router early December and have been learning CAD/CAM Carveco Maker. I did AutoCad 13 way back and some of it is similar. Now doing a Gcode course and Easel. Not sure how many CNCers on here but looking forward to exploring and learning. Cheers, Mike.
 
Welcome from Victoria.
I built a PrintNC router about a year or so ago and just recently delved into the laser cutter/engraver world.

Thanks for the reply. I also have a laser, Genmitsu 5.5w . However, I figure I will get up to speed on the router software before I attempt to learn that. Good to know someone who is delving into this as well.
 
Welcome from lumby I haven't done much yet but I messed around with converting a proxxon mf 70 mini mill and I found vcarve pro very simple to use compared to some other software especially for 2d stuff but in future I plan on making a cnc plasma table once I build a shop
