Induction session on the CNC Router for people who are signed up members of Makespace (i.e. you have your RFID key!) - Up to 3 people.
Will be run as: - 1 hr group induction followed by 3 x 40 min slots for individual project run-through.
After this, you will be able to use the Router.
Note: This session is an introduction only and covers safety and basic operation of the CNC Router. It will not cover advanced use of the software. We suggest all people attending the induction watch at the minimum a video on generating a toolpath at http://support.vectric.com/tut-vcp-2d-core
and also the getting started videos at http://support.vectric.com/tut-vcp-getting-started
If you have used any CAD or 2d design tools before that you hope to use as a starting point for your router projects, please bring an example file of a simple design with you so we can try out the full tool chain. Note: digital design experience isn't a prerequisite but it really helps when you come to make useful things with the router!
