With regard to Gcode - I know it (well, to put it one way, it was easier to learn than brain%@#$, the programming language). I have however never had to use it. Modeling in Rhino and CAMing in Mastercam (9, if anyone cares) is quite effective.

So we're still in the process of wiring the mill and finding a spare computer to run our software off of.
Have you (or anyone reading this) ever used inventor to edgecam? Thats what were supposed to be using for cadcam, and ive never used a cam program before, ive only edited Gcode.
What parts have you made with it so far?
What are the quirks/limitations of the machine?
And we drafted without computers...forget the calculators...we used slide rules...the punchcards piled up so high we needed more office space...and we programmed in three feet of snow...up hill...both ways - Rich Kressly [more]
