    Default CNC Seminar - River Falls, WI Aug, 2016

    The School District of River City Falls (WI) and Kyle Stapleton are proud to announce that we will be hosting a 3 day CNC Training Seminar, August 11, 12 & 13, 2016 at the Renaissance Academy in the Workshop and Technology Lab.

    Our school address is:
    River Falls Renaissance Academy
    1107 South Wasson Lane
    River Falls, WI 54022

    The Seminar will provide training on Vectric software titles Cut 2D, VCarve Pro and Aspire combined with instruction on machine operation, material hold down and placement. It is modeled after the very successful Aspire Camps presented by Jim McGrew in recent years, combined with OEM software training plus the added benefit of a full day of user selected software training with "at the machine" demos.
    We have 2 CNC machines; a ShopBot 5 by 8 and Desktop that will both be used in the Workshop portion. There will be information that benefits users of machines, both large and small, of any brand. Please download the Class Agenda PDF for a full description.

    The Seminar will be presented by instructors Michael Mezalick and Gary Campbell. Both have a wealth of knowledge and a decade of experience with Vectric Products and various brands of CNC machines. This training seminar is designed to both bring new users an increased knowledge and confidence for their CNC journey and provide techniques and methodology that will offer seasoned veterans new tools to increase their success.

    The cost for the 3 day seminar is $300. This covers tuition, various handouts, water, soft drinks, coffee, donuts and light snacks. There will be a 1 hour lunch break which should allow you to enjoy one of our fine local restaurants. There are a limited number of seats available that will be assigned on a first come, first served basis. Confirmation will be based on date of actual payment, not register date. Once registered, you will be sent an email with payment options.

    Here are some classroom photos.
    There will be two projector showing the same information (one front and one rear) so viewing will not be a problem.20160616_181015.jpg20160616_181026.jpg20160616_180959.jpg20160616_181007.jpg

    Thanks Kyle, looks like a first rate facility. Wish I could attend the seminar but it is just too far. Will keep my eyes open for a closer one.

    The list of attendees is starting to build for this Training Seminar.
    Attendees are reminded to bring a problematic design file. These can be files
    that are generated by Cut 2D, VCarve Pro or Aspire. (including Desktop versions)

    If time allows, solutions for Photo VCarve and Cut 3D problems will be
    discussed also.
