Sweet looking toy! This just showed up on your doorstep? :-)

Having seen Cory in action and what he can do with his magic box, I'd wholeheartedly believe *anything* he tells you to do!

You, too, can make magic stuff!

I too have seen Cory in action with his magic box. It's amazing what he can do with it.

Sam,

I'd really read this if you haven't already:

Cory's first couple of posts are extremely helpful!

I can help you load it into our trailer.

If you have any specific questions on CNC in general, or the Haas control, feel free to PM me, I'm quite familiar with both.

As for general learning, it just so happens that 1306 has been running some summer classes for our students, and I taught at crash course in CNC. All my powerpoints, and my speakers notes (basically a script) can be found towards the right side of the google doc here. Make sure to read those speaker's notes under each slide, the slides won't make much sense without them.

This class was tailored towards our machine in particular, which is a lower-end machine with some weird quirks, so you can ignore those parts of the presentation.

I quickly browsed through these. These presentations are a great resource for anyone just getting started with CNC (Haas or otherwise). Very nice work.

If you have not yet, I highly recommend you look into your local master cam distributors. We are sponsored by one and they sent us 2 licenses each year for getting to use us in their publications. Hand g-code is a huge bottleneck and mastercam will allow you to take things up a notch while making the whole process easier.

If you have not done so already contact your local Haas distributor. They are not very far from you and they should help you with some training.

On a side note: Is that an old tap buster behind your mill?

We recorded the presenations (screen capture w/ voice) as well. As soon as we find time to get them edited, we'll post those as well.

Fantastic job on the slideshows. I'd really be interested in the recordings with voice as soon as you have them.
