CNC Workshop 2015

The CNC workshop will return in June of 2015. This is the continuation
of the event started more than 10 years ago by Roland Friestad, then
later run by DIGITAL MACHINIST magazine.

This year the workshop will be held at the TechShop in Allen Park
Michigan, between Detroit and Ann Arbor. the location is very convenient
to the Detroit area, the Detroit airport, and just across the road from
the Henry Ford Museum. The workshop will run between June 15 and 20,
with the main session opening Wednesday morning, June 17.

This year the format will be similar to the past years- we will have 3
days of continuous seminars about CNC aimed at the home shop user. We
have classrooms ranging from a tiered auditorium for over 150 people to
small conference rooms. We will have an area for commercial vendors to
show their products, and an area for individuals to exhibit their projects.

We are now seeking people that want to present a seminar session, or
exhibit their project. Speakers and exhibitors will receive a discount
on the registration fee.

TechShop has setup a web form to collect input at

name on the list for further information and to let us know what you are
willing to present, or what you would like to hear about.

An added feature this year will be 2 days reserved for special, in-depth
training session. TechShop will be offering selected training on using
various machines, and we may have vendor specific training. These
sessions will be on Monday and Tuesday before the main Workshop sessions
begin. There may be an additional charge for these sessions. Please let
us know on the information form of your interest in any in-depth training.

A build class, based on the micro mill from LittleMachineShop.com and
led by Weston Bye will be included. This session is limited to 12
people, so if you are interested in building your own CNC mill please
let us know quickly.

Registration will open about February 1. Please use the information form
to get your name on the list and to tell us what you would like to see
and hear at the workshop.

I hope we can make this years workshop even better than those of the
previous years. Please let us know of your interest so we can plan the
best workshop ever.
