New Beginning of CNC machining

Well, I’m getting ready to start my CNC journey. I received my machine in Jan of 2025 and its still in the boxes. My wife has had some medical issues but hopefully we’re on the right track now. Next week I plan on setting this thing up and I’m sure I will need the help on this forum. I’m sure my software trial has expired so after getting the machine setup I will check back in for some advice.

Looking forward to CNC-ing and meeting new people.

Welcome, Just to get you on the right track, Always make sure to tell us what system you have, and if you plan to make a table or not.

Yes, sorry.

I have a Gen-1 Elite Masso Foreman + QWC / HD Legs + Redline 220V Spindle + Rotary + ATC

The only thing I’m missing is Software and I haven’t decided on the MPG Pendant yet.

Hi Bob – we’re happy to answer any questions you have.

As for software, I always recommend free until you need something that costs money. Learn how to use the machine and the processes first.

Your trial software subscription should still be good for a year if you haven’t activated it yet.

Oh, nice. Im not even sure where it’s at yet.

I’m working on wheels today so I can move this thing around.
