  3. Hey guy's right now I am still working with Vocational Rehab. to figure out what kind of training I can get for CNC Programing or CAD.I told the person I have been working with about Macdac & Services4automation and she is supposed to be looking in to both. Now I was wondering if you could help me with This informational Interviewing I have to do. It is more for people that would be involved with the hireing of a programer/Cad operator.I will put the questions and you could just type out your answers in this post or email them to me. [email protected] Peter scott maybe you know of some people/company's in the central Mass. area I could talk with. Informational Interview Company Name: Phone # : Contact Name: Date: Position inquireing about is CNC Programer or CAD operator 1. What are the job duties of this job? 2. What are the physical requirements? (i.e. lifting, walking,sitting,ect..) 3: What qualifications does an applicant have to have? 4:What type of experience? 5.How many people do you hire in this capacity? 6.What is the salary range?
  4. Peter how many months do the course's last? Do you have any brochures that can be mailed out to me. Also does anyone have any coments on how valuable a CAD course would be to me?
  5. I didnt even realize there were places so close to me.
  6. For some reason I cant get on MACDAC site now. can anyone else?
  7. The mill book that is $45 is in french. lol do you mean $52?
  8. What I ment was I wonder if macdac would consider me unemployed. I did email them though.I emailed them my original post on top here.
  9. I work for Nichols and Stone furniture. Just before my injury they hired a new programer and thats all they use is one workers comp. asked if they had anything available for me but they said no. [ 03-21-2004, 05:21 PM: Message edited by: aha24 ]
  10. Bucket Head I am not at war with the company as of yet and workers comp. is supposed to pay for my training they go by what I am most qualified for up until I started running CNC's I worked warehouse shipping and receiving. Seeing as workers comp. is paying I am trying to figure out the best way to get started and get the most info from a course. I am not sure how I would look for an entry level job because the job market seems to suck in everything except the military. I am sure a certificate from a training course or something from a college would look good when looking for a job. I still would like to get started on my own just not sure how to quite go about it all I was afraid to try for CNC programming because I thought I would be way under qualified.
  11. The other nice thing about MACDAC in Fitchburg is that it is only about 10-15min down the highway from me. "Quote” Try to get the demo version of Mastercam and some books and start to learn it alone too. Don’t waste your time; it is very intuitive and easy to learn, especially because of your CNC experience. "Quote" What books do you recommend? As far as my experience on CNC the company I worked for did furniture in high volume and paid me piece work. They liked to keep the operators in the Dark as much as possible we had a team leader that did most of our in program changes and tool set ups we did our own xyz adjustments tool diameter ect...
  12. jimspac training from MACDAC Engineering sounds very interesting to me. I wonder if I would qualify for the unemployed free course because I receive workman’s comp. and have not been officially let go from my job. I still receive benefits from my job.
  13. Hi my name is Adam I am 28 and from Gardner Mass. I am a CNC operator for a Furniture company here. I have been out of work for almost a year now because of a work related back injury. My Dr. said that I will not be able to continue my current job, and told me to go for vocational training. I really enjoy CNC's though- I have only been running them for 3 years. I would like to stay working with them if possible. I was wondering how I could get started in CNC programming. I got my GED recently so I can continue my education in this field and I have been looking in to CAD courses. Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
