tm cad

Post by wgalcik »

Just bought an as new 4x4 tm table. I opened the cad to draw and after a total of 10 hours I still haven't put down a thing. I got so pissed I downloaded a trial of cadkey, a program I haven't used since the 90's. Within 30 minutes I had 3 small parts to download to tm. Now I can't do anything with them because I don't understand program. Is there any kind of a printed reference for tm. The tutorials are not good at all, the do not show the basic steps
thank you

There are printed and video tutorials on the torchmate website as well as on YouTube. I've used both to help me along.

I agree there should be some information that take you from importing a dxf file to g code.
