Does anyone have a step-by-step

[phil]

I have a shop bot in my classroom, this is new to me and needed to know if anyone can provide me with step-by-step instructions to create a simple 2-d name plate. Any teacher who has created a simplified hand-out and has given it to students to follow and has had luck, let me know. I believe I have the basic software that comes with the machine. Thanks

Phil,
There is an example of creating a single and nested/multiple nameplates in the new PartWizard Training Video that ShopBot now sells. You can read a basic synopsis of the video here

Is there anyone who does shopbot training in the Connecticut area for a reasonable price?

[Rich b (Unregistered Guest)]

Has any Shopbot users found the training video any good?

Con,
What's a 'reasonable price' to you?

I am a new owner. One week to be exact.
I found the video to be a GREAT help to me. I am one who learns better if you show me something, don't give me a book and say read it and just do it.

I look forward to the next video and hope it is released soon.

A few years ago I put together some ShopBot lessons for use in our high school Tech Lab and gave them to the ShopBot folks for distribution on their web site. I hope to be finished with an updated version in a couple days. Before it goes on the ShopBot download page, I would welcome any editing, suggestions, proofreading, additions, etc. that any Botters out there may have to offer.

The lessons include:
1. Generating toolpaths from a stl file in Mill Wizard and machining the part.
2. Creating a name plaque and a clock in Part Wizard 3 and machining both.

The lessons are designed to be completed in nine 45 minute periods. The files are in Microsoft Word format. If anyone is interested, I could email the files.

Mill Wizard?! What about Cut 3D?

Part Wizard?!... Humm okay... but what about V Carve PRO?!

8-D

Keep up the good work!
