    Looking for a tutorial

    Good morning everyone .. I bought my first Mini-CNC 3 axes, using mach3.

    But i can't run it as I would...

    I think mach3 it's quiet good configurated, enough, I think ..

    But I did't not be able to realise my 1rt piece..

    I'm looking for a full tutorial if it's exists... or examples of simple g code to make it run ...

    I use SolidWorks, but each piece i made doesn't run on mach3...

    Thank you very much for your answers

    Try running the famous road runner file.(very few newbee did not)

    Hook up all of the motors and Load a G-code file (Look in MACH3/GCode folder for the Roadrunner test file.

    That should tell you if mach 3 is properly configure.
    Youtube is a good source of information too...

    P.S.
    Saviez-vous qu il y a un cnc zone en francais? A la toute fin de la liste des forum.
    Bonne chance!

    I can't seem to get those to play on my iPad.

    Is there a similar series of videos available on YouTube?

    Thanks
