    Cool Cad/Cam Example - Help Me Understand

    :cheers: Cheers Guys!
    I have a request to make "if it makes sense". I'm new to CNC but I'm trying to get started. I've ordered a mill, collected servos, purchases Geckos, building a power supply and orderred conversion plans. What I have not been able to do yet, is to put it all together. I don't mean the mechanicals, I can do that given enough time. What I'm talking about, is the drawing, program conversion, machine langage conversion and the actual milling of a part. Is there examples on site or can anyone provide me with samples of a simple (or complex part) from the start to finish. Maybe a drawing file, then a g code conversion file and a pix of the final part. This will help me understand tremendously. See, I'm not from Missouri, but I grew up next door so I guess some of the "show me" must have rubbed off. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Go to Onecnc.com and view all their videos, especially all the mill product videos. Although the clips are short, they will spark a lot of thought on the process of making your machine move.
