Charles Davis wrote Mastercam Handbook Volume I, II etc. They are fully endorsed and published by CNC Software, (i.e. Mastercam). I'm not sure of the price, as I get mine for free, but I'm sure they're priced nicely. Check out Mastercam.com for more info.
Also, there's a tutorial called FMMT, which is very good.

sorry did not get back right away working 12 hour days, are those books like the one i seen at San Deigo CadCam?
Thanks, BIll
I don’t use MasterCam myself but wanted to say I saw a training book for MasterCam at Barnes & Nobel today. I was surprised by this, it is the first time I have seen a book for Cam on the shelf that was about one specific program. I guess it says something about the popularity of MasterCam.

Bill the ones Reked is talking about are the books from San Deigo Cadcam.
I also carry the V9 orignals you asked about.

Depends, Bill, on when you were there. He started writing them (I think) 2 or 3 years ago. (I used to teach there, BTW) If you're talking about the one's we used in the classes, those are a bit different, as they are designed for use in a learning environment and don't touch on all the capabilities.
Gary, you're right. Mastercam is THE most popular in shops AND schools without a doubt, and without any real competition (according to Cimdata). It's always been extremely powerful, and with the release of X coming soon, I can say as a beta tester, that it will take an even bigger lead next year.

Rekd, (and other MCX Beta testers),
What are the MCX system requirements going to be?
Have they changed since MCX's developement?
I currently have: Intel, Pentium 3, Windows 98, and I'm getting ready to upgrade.
What are your recomendations.
Well to start it will not support Win 98 any longer.
OS requarments is at least Win 2k
And 512 meg ram or better.
Some of the starting points.

cadcam,
Thanks for the answer.
What video card do you suggest.
For video a Quadro FX 500 or higher would be great.
If you can't find the Quadro cards you can go with say a GF FX 5700 or higher card.

Hi guys thanks for the info, I bought learning mastercam mill, but at work we only get surfaces and solids. So my problem is I have to try to learn the more advance stuff right away while learing the 2D at home.As for going to school that out 12 hours days 7 days a week, so everthing I will be doing is at home or work.
Thanks again, Bill Johansen
Bill I suggest you contact HB cad-cam consulting services your dealer.
And find out when we are having more classes out of the office.
A day or two can really make a diffrence.Talk with Rob over there about the training.

Hello
I am new to Mastercam myself. As a user of featurecam for many years, it has been a bit difficult. I signed up for an online streaming video course at www.streamingteacher.com. i have found it to be well worth the money.
that is a good site that is put togeather by one of our other dealers.
