The Definitive Handbook for the Beginner CNC Woodworker


Long-time CNC instructor Ralph Bagnall compiled his years of experience in teaching professional CNC operators and home enthusiasts the fundamentals of CNC operation inside the pages of
CNC Woodworking for the Absolute Beginner. His "class in a book" answers the most frequently asked questions his students raise through a series of five skill-building projects. Each project serves the purpose of teaching a new technique or element of CNC woodworking. You'll build a solid foundation of knowledge with his detailed introduction to the anatomy of a CNC machine, bit selection and function, CNC capabilities, programming, and safety. With your newfound knowledge, you'll be well-equipped to start creating with this hands-on approach to instruction. From learning how to import a job and creating a text tool path in the first project through learning how to use a 3D finishing toolpath to program a relief carving — everything a confident and capable CNC woodworker needs to know is covered in one all-encompassing manual.

YOU'LL LEARN HOW TO:
  • Import a file
  • Create a text toolpath
  • Output G-code for the machine
  • Group objects
  • Program profile toolpaths
  • Cut parts inside and outside of lines
  • Use the drawing features of the CAD/CAM software
  • Move and manipulate drawing features
  • Add a form tool in the Tool Database
  • Create holes without drilling
  • Hold parts by programming an onion skin cutout
  • Cut a project using multiple router bits
  • Import and join vectors for toolpathing
  • Use the V-carving toolpath
  • Use multiple router bits to complete a project
  • Import a 3D .stl file
  • Use the 3D finishing toolpath to program a relief carving

"Ralph has helped me time and again in my journey to become more proficient with my CNC. This book is just what the doctor ordered for anyone starting out in the CNC world."
— Rob Johnstone, expert woodworker and former Editor-in-Chief of Woodworker's Journal Magazine

"This book provides useful, hands-on instruction, using five projects as teaching tools that will help answer your CNC questions and master your CNC router."
