books for mastercam!

[Justin Lewellin]

Hello I am new to the mastercam world! Going to mastercam classes learning x8. Was wanting to know if the mastercam hand books vol 1, 2, 3 will be helpfull as the other books i have purchased? I have mastercam level 1 and level 3. Mill work is mostly what I'll be doing. Any other books i can get that would be helpfull would be cool if you know of any! Thanks

The Volume series are a good one to get more detail about what options do.

Hello Justin,

 

The handbooks take more of a theoretical approach to Mastercam in comparison to the step-by-step approach of the training tutorials. You can check out free sample PDFs to see how the Handbooks differ from your current materials here: http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/category/166-handbooks/

I like having pulp based reading material so I ordered some books BUT (<---big but) If you do order them; don't get too excited about the shipping time. I ordered mine @ 1:30 AM PDT on 02/13 and they're not here yet.

All print books take 1-2 weeks for delivery. Basically the further you are from Tennessee the closer to 2 weeks you get. We also have PDF versions of all materials that can be downloaded and viewed immediately upon purchasing.

I got 1 Mil Level 1 from the company sponsored class I attended so I don't need the one I bought. PM me if any of you might like it.
