Welcome Nicole, Depending on your level of computer knowledge, it can all seem very daunting at first. :shock: But in a short space of time, you'll wonder how you ever managed to create designs without the use of a mill :roll: Learning 3D programs, Reliefs, X, Y & Z positions, Cutting Parameters, wi...

Welcome Keith,

With your knowledge of Rhino, you shouldn't have too many problems on the design side of things :wink:

Welcome Matt, I'm guessing that you're also getting Jeff's Rotary with the MDX-15? Sounds & looks like you're already up to speed with the designing side of things, Well done!! At this point, the only thing that I'd be changing within your design would be the rotary support bars. They need to come o...

Welcome Michael, The best advice is to read through the different sections within the Forum, to get a better understanding of what you're dealing with. Have a look at some of those earlier posts, as there's a lot of good "Newbie" info that gets missed because it's so far back. Download any of the va...

Welcome Steve,

You'll find there's a ton of info to help you with most of your first "Newbie" problems.
But if you do get stuck, just post your problem.

It doesen't take that long to get caught up in the "milling addiction".
I look forward to seeing your creations.

While your waiting for the mill, read through a lot of the earlier posts, within the various sections. You'll find a wealth of information that's often over looked, because...

Hey Pat, no problems with using the skull, that's why I posted it.
Talk about good timing, I couldn't have planned it any better!! :lol:

I'm just glad to see that the design was of use to you.

Going by the lettering in the Harley Bar & Shield, you've also got that under control too!
Great looking pieces, Well done!! 8)
