SERIES OF CLASSES

This course is designed for individuals who have taken CNC Basics and want to learn VCarve Pro.

You will learn to use VCarve Pro CNC software to design three projects and to generate the toolpath code to cut them on a CNC. You will then apply what you've learned by performing one comprehensive cut in class. After class, students who are also SDFWA Shop Members will be given a free shop slot to do a capstone project. 

To design your projects and to define your cuts you will receive a full license to Vectrics’ VCarve Pro (Windows-only). This license is only for use with the SDFWA Member Shop CNCs. Students must bring their own laptop computer and a USB drive to each class.

When you complete this class you will have a working knowledge of VCarve Pro. You will be able to design CNC projects and generate the toolpath code. Lastly, you will have applied most of what you learned by cutting one project during class. Note: outside of class time, use of the SDFWA CNC is restricted to Shop members only.
