Learning EnRoute

[roy_shimp]

I have EnRoute Pro and some of the tools i have a hard time understanding. My question is how do you folks that run EnRoute learn the tools? Do you call for support? Is there a book? Is there online video series? Thank you.

I believe EnRoute does have some how to video's. When I was considering purchasing, they offered to throw them in. If memory serves I think they sell for about $85.

Wish I had purchased Inspire.

Joe - that's Aspire....but it's still a great program.

Dan Sawatzky holds several workshops each year and teaches Enroute, along with a lot of other stuff. He's in British Columbia, Canada.

Thanks Raymond for the assistance.

Both Raymond and I purchased our ArtCam about the same time. Both of us have had second thoughts after Aspire came out. I've played around with it and found it to be much faster and easier. One big advantage is their support and website. EnRoute and ArtCam are in the same boat, expensive, and more difficult than Aspire. If I had the money, I'd go that way.

Raymond is ever so kind to do my spell checking. He hardly ever charges for his services. Older guys are that way.

Joe you crack me up when you rag on Chappy!:D

[joewino]

Joe...sure I charge for my services - remember the steak you bought me?

There are several projects that I've taken on in the last few years in regard to Joe:

1. It is my duty to try to keep him humble. I know, it's a tough job but somebody has to do it. (I've taken on the same task with Dan Sawatzky)

2. To protect all the younger females from a dirty old man.

3. To protect an old man from embarrasing moments - like spelling things wrong.

Now Joe, remember to take your medicine and don't get overheated.

LOL....now that's funny :D

[joe]

David, stop laughing right now. You're encouraging him!

Do we get a chance to vote on who's in charge of keeping the world level? Looks like a self appointment to me.

[joewino]

The world's not level? I'll get right on it.

My first CNC router was a used Gerber that made me scream and pull my hair out constantly !
Never made the first darn thing on that contraption !
I purchased EnRoute 4 Plus for a mere $4,800.00 and never got it to do a darnm thing either ! Complicated as the dickens !
EnRoute is a very good software from what I have heard.
But I wouldn't trade my Alpha and Aspire for ten of em !
My setup is about as dummy proof as you can find ! So I only have problems 1/2 the time now . :D
