Hello All,
Newbie here - VERY newbie. My first post, been reading for a couple weeks. Been machining for over 30 years, been surfing the net with the computer for about 10 years, but never been exposed to CAD, CAM, CNC. However I very much want to jump in.....
So, split into Categories? For me and other newbies (blind people lost in a strange place, and almost alone) I would very much like to see something like "Getting Started".
A place where all the basic info is placed/discussed. For instance, what is G6 or G31. You guys talk about it like the entire world knows what it means. I don't and don't know where to go to find out. What is a Break-out board used for? The list goes on and on.
People like me need to be able to go to a certain place to find all the basic info that you learned years ago and now take for granted. Trying to learn what something is by reading your discussions about it only makes learning about it very tedious and time consuming. Reading what car drivers say about Transmissions, how and when to push the pedal and move the shift lever, doesn't really convey what one is.
But then, maybe there already is a place like this and I simply have not seen it. Wouldn't be the first time I missed something......
Have A Good Day
Richard
