I'm interested in becoming a new member and am wondering if there is some
quick way to get certified to use the tools. I am a scientist with my own
CNC shop and lab but I'd like to join just for fun. Is there any way to do
this over say over a weekend vs a la carte over several days/weeks? |

What kind of CNC machine do you have?

Hi Bari!
Because we are volunteers with unique and different schedules and different tools are needed by different members, it's unlikely to get it all at once. (also, it's a lot of knowledge. It's good to let the specifics and idiosyncrasies of our space "sink in" and prioritize what you will use the most to minimize the drag on the volunteers as resource.)
You are however, welcome to try and schedule with each of us as tightly as you can.
Also remember to request trainings on the members only board or privately via contact info/process on the wiki and champion board in the Lenox building, this group is our open/public list, and there's folks all over the country in here.
Cheers,

From the outside looking in.. Doubtful.
Each area has its own 'area champion' that does most of the teaching/certifying future un-supervised use. Some are here, some are away.. you'd have to coordinate with many people (and their schedules) to get that to materialize.

If you join, I am the trainer for the Mogul CNC. It uses LinuxCNC. I am
retired and I prefer training during the weekday in the morning or
afternoon. I will be
gone for about 2 weeks in later this month.

Hi Harvey,
Thanks!
I'm a LCNC dev. I've probably designed many types of machines using LCNC.
What version are you running and what did you use for the controller, e.g.
PC + LPT + BOB or Mesa cards, RPi4 + Mesa or??

It looks like this although it did not come with Mach 3. Also, at Norwich there is a Stepcraft I believe D840.It works and Marcus and I are setting it up. It is near the 5 by 9 CNC. It works, it needs a spoilboard and minor items to make it workable. Although I am retired, currently I have limited time at the makerspace. Becauseof a pending trip, my wife is further restricting when and how long I can work on projects. When I get back inSeptember, I may have more time. This is the material that me and another member put together for the Mogul. It is a little dated. There is now a spindle witha speed controller. Also, there is a USB game controller for the X,Y, and Z axis. Once you become a member we can work sometraining out. It takes about 30 minutes or so. The makerspace also has a Makerspace copy of Vcarve Pro. Basically youdownload the free version which does everything except create gcode. When you bring your project on a computer that has theMaster Vcarve Pro, you download your project, it'll ask do you want a license (or something like that) and you say yes and now youcan save gcode to be used on the CNC.

Harvey,
Thank you for the info. I have all my own CAD/CAM tools MasterCAM, NX, SW,
Creo, Catia etc etc. I'll try to take up as little of your time as possible.
