    Hi,

    Have gathered a bunch of them in a YouTube playlist: CNC: Control: MachineKit/LinuxCNC/EMC2 - YouTube

    Hope it will help
    Cheers

    Download the iso, follow the installation instructions and install it on any old PC. THere are many, many sims (Simulators) that will let you play with it without needing any CNC hardware connected. Some of these are so good, I actually used a sim to tune my plasma torch height control in software. When I transferred the settings to my real hardware, it worked perfectly!
