SynopsisGetting Started with CNC is the definitive introduction to working with affordable desktop and benchtop CNCs, written by the creator of the popular open hardware CNC, the Shapeoko. Accessible 3D printing introduced the masses to computer-controlled additive fabrication. But the flip side of that is subtractive fabrication: instead of adding material to create a shape like a 3D printer does, a CNC starts with a solid piece of material and takes away from it. Although inexpensive 3D printers can make great things with plastic, a CNC can carve highly durable pieces out of a block of aluminum, wood, and other materials. This book covers the fundamentals of designing for--and working with--affordable ($500-$3000) CNCs.

Good information
Good information but really does nothing to help use or setup machine. Before basic book and has information that gets you excited but was not able close the job. Still trying to get machine working but know more about CNC use.

If you are a total Noob this is for you
Explains just about anything someone knew would want to know. It answered all of my questions plus some. MAKE; does it again and again - putting out books that help total newcomers to a field. They pay attention to their use of acronyms, and geek speak so as not to alienate the newcomers unfamiliar with nerd jargon etc.
