hi all!,

new to this place and happy to be part of it! my interest in cnc machines particularly in milling/routers had started when i bought the "heavy mill" flat bed router from 3dtek in sydney. from assembly to cad/cam and learning the basic machining principal's as well as gcode i have taught myself the basics. i am now looking at further studies in this field or an apprenticeship. the problem is i have no idea how to get started. it doesnt seem such a popular choice of study/job. is this because this technology is fairly new for australia? as i no the USA have alot of courses in computer aided manufacturing. just seeing what your opinions are and if australia has any courses or what is the beat way to get started in cnc cad/cam machining. thanks, Ryan
