And, to make it a pleasurable, efficient Tool, User should know how to Create/Tweak Toolbars that add Icons/tools from other WB’s (to reduce going jumping from one WB to another). Thus, a proficient User will need to know what WB’s do what.

Important to know - like many Software packages (including Kicad), FC embeds a variety of Tools/Apps.

Link to my Show-And-Tell of the $120 CNC Mill machine. It’s good enough for PCB and light-weight milling and education. In fact, since retiring 25 yrs ago, I sold all my large machines.īut, to more responsibly, recommend low-Cost Mill for PCB’s, I bought a $120 CNC mill. Mill Machine - for PCB and light-weight CNC machining, I use a MicroProto. Thanks in advance for any input! I've also look through the forum for topics inline with this but mostly saw suggestions for paid and/or 2.5 axis programs but, maybe I missed the thread I needed to see.What machine do you use for milling? Does the path tool also have a z-axis for general 3d cnc or edm machines? Also any good alternatives to LinuxCNC are welcome albeit LinusCNC being substantially robust open source software that will be pretty hard to beat.

I have also looked into FreeMill by mecsoft and P圜AM as options for tool path generation but am hoping for some more options. The best option I have found so far is model with Alibre Design, use FreeCad as a Gcode/Tool-Path generator, then use LinuxCNC to operate the CNC Router.

I would like to avoid Fusion360 as they could update their licensing policies at any point locking out the free capabilities for CAM/Gcode. I would like to get a smaller setup for my studio and I'm trying to figure out some good Free/Open-Source alternatives. My previous employer was using fusion360 to design and generate Gcode for their Mach3 CNC controller and in all it was a pretty good setup for their needs. I'm looking into some possible options for a 3axis CNC router setup compatible with Alibre exportable files and was hoping for some opinions and suggestions.
