Hi
My name is Leon.
It has been a lifelong dream to have my very own CAD system, workshop and CNC machine. I am a mechanical design drafter, used lots of different CAD systems, and finally bought Solidworks a few years ago. A few years later I got bit by the 3d print bug. Had the wiz bang idea, got it modelled in Solidworks, and then it took me ages to put the rest of the bits together. I bought a 4 axis CNC router, PC controller machine and Mach 3 so now, I just need to make some small modifications to the machine, and learn how to use Mach 3 and I will have achieved one of my longest running life goals, and will hopefully make an unfeasibly large amount of money if the wiz bang 3d printer thing works out. I joined this community in the hope for getting some advice on modding my CNC router into a practical CNC mill.
