The system is currently in an "alpha" state - if you would like to get trained to do a specific job you have in mind, on the understanding that you may find issues along the way (which helps us too!) you can email the LHS CNC mailing list (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/lhs-cnc) to arrange a time for training. You will find this easiest if you take a look at one of the recommended packages above (or your own choice of package, we will try to accomodate). You need to be able to do a CAD drawing and understand and generate a machine code file i.e G or NC code
