VCarve is great software for makers new to CNC.
Pikes Peak Makerspace members have access to VCarve - Makerspace Edition which allows you to design on your personal PC at home, then generate the G-code at our makerspace!
The VCarve software is currently installed on our Design Workstations 2 and 3. (VCarve software is Windows only.)
