Ok, I've been reading a lot the last several days trying to understand all this stuff before I go asking about mills and I've gotten a little confused. I think I understand the differences in 2d vs 2.5d and 3d. (2d being one level cut, 2.5d being multilevel cut but not changing z during the pass and 3d being all axis can change during the pass?)
So why aren't all 3 axis mills 3d? Or are they and it's g-code dependent? Sorry, I know this is a very basic question but it seems to be eluding me.
I guess I should've started with this since this is my first post. The name is Jarrett, I am wanting to get a cnc mill to learn with but I'm trying to learn all I can about them before I bug you guys about which mill and what not. I have some (very limited but enough to do the basics) manual mill experience. I'm into speaker building and am wanting to try some custom curved boxes and that's really about all the justification I have right now. I thought it would make a decent excuse to get one to learn with.
Thanks in advance. I have already learned a lot on here in the last week.
