Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] CNC Workshop 2.0 book with software

I bought a copy of this. It was out of print when I went looking for a copy, and picked up a barely opened
copy used on ABE for a significant discount. Like everything else on the subject of G code it gives every
indication of being written in ancient Greek. In addition, I couldn't get the simulation software CD to work,
as it needed some obscure plug in or something. I can't say I tried too hard. I lent my copy to Matt Shaver,
who seemed quite positive about it. Maybe he can add more.

Now, of course, I wish I had spent more time learning about G code while my CNC mill was being retrofitted.
It is clear that having an application like Vector which writes G-code is no substitute for knowing what has
been written so you can chase down the many many things that go wrong.
