Santa has kindly asked what I would like him to bring me, anyone any suggestions on useful books for learning the basics of CNC machining/programming (esp. milling?) This is for bedtime reading after evenings spent disembowelling the new toy (Bridgeport series 1 with dead controller)
Thanks Tim

I will drop my simple one off for you to borrow if you wish, "The CNC workbook" by Nanfara and others. Dos based cnc software included when I find it!
