Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Quick and Dirty One-Offs?

Let me rephrase....I also want to be able to do multple items, but am
starting from ground zero, with an Autocad background and am using Mach2 to
control my machine, and have access to VisualMill. Since Autocad is
available I probably should learn through that, but it probably makes sense
to get "down and dirty" with g-codes, manually at first, so I understand
them well. This is the reason for the original post, I want to learn on a
sample one-off design and progress to a "production run". Am now collecting
references to get a bit more knowledgeable with g-codes.
