for new beginners like me im finding it increasingly difficult to get my head around the LAZY CAM and MACH3 software operations
someone attempted to direct me to video tutorials but they just dont work as videos...they are simply SCREEN SHOTS on the artsoft website..NO VIDEOS at all
surely there is a HUGE market out there for someone to actually create operational videos for the DUMMIES (like me)..
what i keep running into is that every instruction or tutorial that i can find ASSUMES that i am some sort of expert on their level...
i guess my question is
IS THERE ANYWHERE that has a tutorial that has been DUMBED DOWN for absolute BEGINNERS...that covers things like TERMINOLGY explainations etc etc
im at the point when im just going to give up and sell my new machine and stick with engraving from my Garavograph Pantograph machines...
the Lazy Cam manual i have is 123 pages long and it seems to not run in sequence but jump all over the place...CRAZY
while i do appreciate that the majority of guys here on this forum have a more than basic knowledge of CNC operations....but surely somewhere...somehow,,,,someone has come up with a STEP by STEP guide for DUMMIES...if not...then i can safely say there is a HUGE market out there for someone to create these tutorials and in EASILY EXPLAINED ENGLISH...Not Computer Jargon
sorry for the rant....but this is all becoming too much for me
all i want to do is simply ENGRAVE flat material such as Trophy Plates (in multiples) and Plaques as such...im not interested in MILLING...
the cnc chinese 3040 machine i just purchased appears to be great...it responds to jog commands from mach 3,,,,so the machine is fine and so is the software
i just cant co-ordinate it in my head
HELP before i go insane
