I'm looking for patient persons to let me learn what school can't teach me. I'm attending the Fullerton College Machine Technology program and am running through the projects at a rate of one assignment a week. That wouldn't be all that bad if they had more for me to do. The remainder of the class is still on the first lathe project and I need more to do.
If anyone in the OC wants someone to sweep chips while handing down their vast knowledge of machining let me know.

I went to fullerton college
I'm at CSULB right now.
Unfortunately I'm in the computer engineering program rather than mechanical engineering, but oh well. M.E. is still a fun hobby.
We should get an industrial hobbies club going here in fullerton

Turbo1zz have you stoped by some of the local shops in your area and see what kind of deal you can cut with them.
There are alwas shops out there that will take on people starving to learn.(Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)

A good place to check would be Santos Precision in Santa Ana. I know they are busy so they might welcome some help!

not to hijack this thread but i am also looking for a mentor or just someone to ask a few questions every once in a while in the area as well. I have a small 3 axis cnc machine i purchased and have been learning through trial and error but am having major problems trying to make a waterblock similar to this

heck if it is just questions you want to ask then start a thread for your problem.
This is the place to ask, there is so much talent and knowledge on this sight we could probably build a colony on mars
thanks

Miljnor... I will test the knowledge of the zone. I have a drawing I want to put in mastercam9.1 and generate a tool path what do i have to do to then cut the part or take the drawing and make it 3D and cut it. I know this asking a lot and Thank you for any help. Is this possible with out having any other programs other than 9.1 mastercam? I've only been in cnc 1.5 years and have a small machine and don't want to crash and brake my toy before I can really make parts or learn to draw and cut parts. Need help 9lrac9

Master cam can do pretty much anything that any of the cad systems can do.
You should be able to find some people too help you, as I am not well versed in master cam. (I am a virtual gibbs guy.)
good luckthanks
