HawainPand,
When he asked for the file type of IGES or STL. These are different CAD file types. Look in your CAD application under "Export" Or maybe it could be under "Save As" If you find this in the menu structure then a window will appear. Look for a drop down on the window to find the different file types to save as. An IGES file type will have a .igs extension. An STL type will have an .stl extension.
If you can send him one or both of these types of files then NO dimensions will be needed. If you have to send him a 2D file like a .dwg or .dxf you will loose the Z depth data and will need to tell him that information.
An end mill is the tool that does the cutting when a "milling" process is underway. I think they call it "End" "Mill" because it can cut on the bottom "End" as well as on the sides of the tool.
Isn't this learning of CNC and machining fun????
