CNC Code

So I am 4/5 done with machining school and we are learning to write CNC code. Now there are several programs to aid in the writing of CNC programs, but we are learning it raw. It’s almost like programming a computer in DOS. I really like it there is a lot of thinking and math but I could see doing it for a while. I took some video on my phone of some of the programs I wrote in action but the format the video was taken in I can’t post or get to convert properly. Ill try to post the code so you can see what it looks like at some point and maybe a picture of what it made. Right now we are just using pen and paper to learn the basics of programming. So we load the code and put a pen in the CNC and it draws what we wrote. I can wait to get out in the field and hopefully I find companies that will help me advance in to programming full time.
