Re: UPDATE - Easy CNC Guide Needed


 

Try free, "librecad", or it's commercial version QCad. It works
on Linux, Mac, and Winders. I hear you can now get a CAM add
on to their commercial version. No docs come with the free
version, but lots of tutorials on youtube. Simplest, easy to
use CAD package I've seen so far. Before I forget, it's 2.5-D.

My 2 cents.....Search for a program called CamBam...I think it's
free, never used it but hear great things about it.I use high
end SOLIDWORKS based cam packages at work so I don't have a need
for something like this. Learn basic Gcode...Not that hard...
you'd be surprised at what you can do with it
If you want to design components then even a simple CAD package
is almost essential. Search "Free CAD software".
Quite a bit to choose from.

Good point Paul .... I believe that mach 3 package came with a
file called lazycam that may do the same thing, but I haven't
the foggiest? Thanks for the note. PM
