You’ve got yourself a CNC router or mill, but now you need to learn how to generate gcode for it. In this video, we cover an entire workflow for Kiri:Moto, a free and open source CAM CNC program. This includes setup of machine and tools, global preferences, various toolpath operations and exporting options.
If you feel that the Carvera Air is being mentioned a lot in this video, that is simply because that is the CNC I have donated to a school. I’m just trying to cater this video to them to make their experience as smooth as possible.
