X-Carve Machine
Our X-Carve CNC machine was donated to DMS by a generous benefactor on August 18, 2023.
How you become authorized to use the X-Carve CNC
This process is being kept simple, but since we select to have a lot of users a bit of structure is required.
- Create your Easel account to access the free software.
- Go through the various tutorials listed below
- Take a couple of Make-and_take classes or the getting familiar with X-Carve class(coming soon).
- Take a short quiz on Moodle to verify you understand the basics.
- Create the simple test cut file you will receive after you pass the quiz.
- Set a day and time with one of the X-carve coach/tester folks.
- Demonstrate you can run your simple job and then you are set to go.
This simple process will help us verify members have both some knowledge and a small investment in the machine.
