Hello, im leon and im not a cnc machinist. yet.

Just a quick intro to me, im 19 and currently on a apprenticeship witha local drop forging company. I applied and took the job on the basis that they were gettin a brand new machine, which i would be taught on. (Hurco VMX42t, with winmax & power mill pro) Weve had the machine since september now and as much as the operator/ programmer says he dont mind teaching me, i dont seem to get a lot out of him.

So one of my main reasons for signing up is to see if i can get my hands on any sort of manuals, dvds, tutorials of anything and everything from clocking up to setting tools etc etc.

One final thing, if anyone knows of any trainiee/ apprenticeships around wolverhampton/west midlands with a good cnc company which will actually stand me in good sted, id be very grateful if you could let me know.

thanks, leon
