Re: Initial Setup/Little Knowledge

Thank you Kayvon. I pulled that gcode down from the Shark website for projects. As you can tell, I am very unfamiliar in this whole process and I appreciate any assistance in learning. I included the CRV file this time. I can also do screenshots if that works better. I also tried to venture on my ow...

Kyle Ely's "Learn Your CNC" course takes you through everything from the beginning through advanced 3d modeling. He offers a weekly online live session on Thursdays at 7PM Eastern.

Initial Setup/Little Knowledge

Re: New Owner HD520

Welcome to the world of CNC! I found the Vectric tutorials to be a big help. I use two screens. One to watch/pause/re-run the tutorial, and one to draw on as I follow along.
