Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Learning

(snip)

>How did the members of this group learn to do cad programs?

For me, it was.....
1) READ READ READ
2) TRY TRY TRY
3) Question why that didn't work and Try again.
4) More reading and trying

6) Go back to step one and do it all over again.

Seriously, I learned this way. Figure out a project that YOU want to try
and start doing it. You will find more sucess doing what you want to do
that trying to use the canned projects that somebody else gives you. Yes,
you may need to use their project to figure out the basics of what the
command structure is, but I think in the end you will learn more from
something that interests you.

By the way, it helps IF you have a background in hand drawing. Cad is an
extension of that. As a result of that experience, I now use cad for
doodling instead of the preverbial napkin. Besides that, the cad lines are
straight and the circles round:-})
