CNC-Carving X6-1500GT Built and working :) Now what?!?!

mardi 21 octobre 2014

I said it was going to stay in the box until the new shed was approved and built, but that may not be to January. Who can resist leaving a new toy in a box?



So I had to assemble it. Its sitting upon 2 saw horses right now. I loaded win XP onto a laptop, loaded up mach3, loaded up the cnc carving demo and after a couple of attempts I managed to route out the demo piece!! Yay. all to easy. Considering the little amount of dollars outlaid compared to the shark I cant say I am unhappy with the results so far.



Now its up an going, any tips on where to start learning as noob? Anyone in Brissie want to make use of it in return for a few lessons? I think for the first step I might download some free plans and just have a go at routing out some stuff with scrap timber. Any pointers to websites with some basic stuff would be greatly appreciated.



At this point, only have the supplied 6mm end mill bits, so also need pointers to tooling that I should look at buying.



Anyway, new toy joy, so many questions, thanks in advance.



Andy.
