Recently, I downloaded the free trial version of Cut2D. I've now purchased the full licence for the Cut2D CAM software and I'm currently somewhere near the bottom of that particular learning curve, but enjoying the experience none the less. Even if you aren't actively thinking about buying a CAM (computer aided manufacture) package, its well worth downloading the Cut2D trial, from the Vectric web site, as there are some examples that the home machinist can take through the tool path generation stages and by selecting the control currently in use, from the post processor list, you can create a G code part program, that will run on your own machine.
