Hi Michael. To "get your feet wet", try Kcam (www.kellyware.com) It
takes dxf files (standard cad program format) converts to g-code AND
drives your stepper motor drivers (www.hobbycnc.com) Check out the
photos section, Rick-o-matic folder. It is a homemade cnc I made!
see ya all at the N.A.M.E.S show next month!!!!!Rick
