General Mach Discussion / Re: Just introducing myself
« on: August 15, 2006, 10:05:39 PM »
Hey, thanks for the fast responses! You guys are great! I have a feeling without this forum my machining days are going to be short to say the least
If ya looked up noobiness at dictionary.com the results would turn back as Dmartin95 ... My title is PC tech so all the electroncis for me is rather easy to grasp... But I am not a programmer and I have zero CAD background, and Zero GCODE background... Not too mention I have never before used a CNC/Mill/Lathe before I built mine...In otherwords, ZERO machining experience...
Ok, that explains what the feedrate is but where do I put it in? DO I have to manually edit the actual GCODE and will I have to do it for every file I create? I understand I can load a GCODE file and go in and manully edit it, but isn't there a way I can setup a permanate feedrate so that everytime Mach creates a GCODE for me it will automatically input the feedrate for me?
