I recently deployed madCAM as part of my overall CAD/CAM strategy for a new K2 CNC system. I have to say that, with the exception of one workflow, the entire process was rather intuitive and relatively pain free ... and once I discovered how to perform that non-intuitive workflow, the entire process is rather easy and straight forward :banana:
I model my design in RhinoCAD
select the tools and define their paths with madCAM
and then post the gcode. Mach3 utilizes the posted gcode files to drive the CNC just like it should
and the end result is a roughed guitar body that's ready to be finessed by hand into a playable work of art
all the best,
R
