Hi,
I've played with CNC stuff for a couple years, but I'm relatively new to this and there's a lot that I don't understand.

I'm trying to play with probing and I'm wondering once I get the point cloud how do I get it to g-code so that I can cut it?  
I bought a probe, mounted it on my router, set-up Mach 3, ran the program and now i have the x and y and z with numbers ( point cloud ).

NOW WHAT DO I DO!!  ...  I have been  reading the posts all week but they were not really broken down on the steps to take.

Is there a tutorial somewhere that tells you how to get from the point cloud to g-code?  

The steps i need to take would be much appreciated....thanx...Don    ( I have Bob-Cad Cam )
