So after spending a couple weeks figuring this thing out, I have some things to point out that might help anybody trying to learn the mill wizard:

1st of all When you try the g-code designs that are already on the computer, the file extension to enter to get to them is tap. When you get to these designs, I suggest starting with the letter.tap files. Then try the others that are there.

So when you pick the file you want to make (It's been about a month but I'm going to try to remember this is off the top of my head)

Start by choosing a speed for the bit to run at. I found that a good speed to start with was 100-150 in/min, and you can pause it and change the speed while it's making the design if you want. But be careful because the speed you enter won't be the speed it shows on the screen so you need to figure out the right ratio to use. Also make sure you know what units you're using.

Next choose a % size to make the design. For the letters, I think it was about .02- .08. Experiment with this size using the foam.

Then move the bit so it is around the middle of the foam if you're doing a letter. Generally it's a good place to start. If you look at the screen as it does the preview (more later), you can tell where you should be, if yo maybe need to start in a corner. But to move the bit, press x to move parallel to the machine, press y to move perpendicular to the machine, and press z to move up and down (oh- ps use the right and left arrow buttons to make them move).

So to preview your design: reset the program, press plot preview, press 3 and tell it to run continuously.

Then zero your axes by pressing 4x, 4y, 4z because the plot preview makes the numbers change but it doesn't move the bit. This will tell the machine to start from where your bit is now.

To run the program: reset the program, press 3, and tell it to run continuously. IMPORTANT: the space bar will immediately stop the bit from moving up and down or side to side, but it won't stop it from turning. If you want to change the bit speed setting, you can press the spacebar and change the tool settings, leaving the bit spinning while you do it.

Putting your design into g-code: send your design to yourself from the computer you design it on the one of the one's behing the machine. On that computer, use the mill wizard program to turn your design into g-code. Then send it to yourself from that computer back to your original computer. Download it to your computer and change the directory to .tap if it isn't already. Then put it on a floppy disc. If you can't put it on the floppy, the disc needs to be reconfigured.

So that's the deal! It's just about everything I know about the mill wizard so far.
