Blendercam Wiki

[Jeff Doyle]

There is now a wiki setup on the Blendercam github site.  Its in its infancy and needs a lot of work to make it useful.  Don't be afraid to add/edit the wiki to improve it.  Don't worry about how the pages are organized, overtime we will organize it.  Create a new page if you have something that does not fit in with the existing pages.

You will have to register on Github in order to be able to edit the wiki.

The panel on the right shows the existing pages that have content.

I started work on Blendercam Panel descriptions but its far from complete.

There is also a page on how to use the most recent blendercam from github with a daily build of Blender.

Although I have found Blendercam fairly easy to use (without a manual), sometimes I discover strange ways of doing things that probably were not intended in Blendercam.  I have been putting together a CAM recipe book for the projects I have done so that I can reference it when working on a new project and trying to figure out how best to use the CAM strategies.

These recipes will eventually be posted in the wiki.  I am no expert at this stuff, only been doing CAM since Aug 2015, but there is always more than one way to skin a cat and it seems the same with CAM.  Of course some methods work better than others but each has its merits.

Jeff, I greatly appreciate the work you do on the wiki, 

the manual is allready much better than what I did on the Blender CAM website...

Regards,

Thanks.  Hopefully over time, more users/programmers will get involved in adding to or editing the wiki.
