Get started in the world of CNC machining with this hands-on guide that tells you exactly what you need to know without overloading you with useless theory Key Features * Get started with the basics of CNC machining and set up your own computerized workshop * Explore loads of do-it-yourself projects to practice what you've learned * Take advantage of the potential of home machining thanks to the power of CNC Book Description Until recently, Computer Numerical Control machines belonged to the realm of heavy industry, but as technology becomes cheaper and smaller, these machines can be used in home workshops. It's not easy to get started, though, but luckily for you, you've picked up this book. A Tinkerer's Guide to CNC Basics contains everything you need to get set up at home with computer-controlled machining and fabrication. Sparing you the theory, this project-laden guide helps you learn by doing. Once you've got grips with the principles of CNC and installed the 3018 Pro CNC machine, you'll gradually move from simple projects such as basic engraving to more complex milling and machining techniques. You'll even learn how to upgrade your machine to accomplish more sophisticated designs. The plethora of projects in this book will keep you busy and give you the practice you need to get started with your computerized workshop. By the end of the book, your computerized home workshop will be one step closer to realization, and your machining skills will be taken to the next level. What you will learn * Configure, calibrate, provision, and test your CNC machine * Add a laser engraver to your machine for finer precision cutting * Use the machine to fabricate new components for itself * Explore the design impacts of carving on a rotary axis * Adapt other machines for CNC * Engrave opaque and semi-opaque materials * Cool your machine with an air assist system * Design and develop a customized laser mount Who This Book Is For The typical reader is a tinkerer, hobbyist or craft-person comfortable with using hand tools, aspiring to accelerate or develop more complex and challenging projects. The reader should be comfortable around basic shop tools, as well as have a basic understanding of computers. While the book will speak to the specifics around the electronics of CNC machines, the terms used, such as motherboard, USB, positive/negative terminal and power supply should not be too daunting to understand.
