Cool how to man, I love how your videos jump right into it and you give enough info to get our brains gears turning but not be boring. Another awesome video, thanks for the knowledge 👍👍
OMG dude I just got a cnc machine and I have spent 2 days researching and trying software but this is exactly what i was looking for. Perfect! Thank you so much.
This was super-helpful. I just bought a mini CNC and was wondering what software would work best. The 2.5D information was brand new to me, so I'm really grateful for this knowledge.
Thanks for the over view Bob.
Great tutorial, I'd love to see some more work and design on your new Shapeoko. Keep up the awesome videos!
Great review / tutorial. Very well produced video. Thanks for your time & effort.
This was awesome and exactly what i needed for my CNC. Literally went looking for software choices yesterday. Thank you
Super helpful, thanks Bob!
I subscribed. This is really great. I doubt I would ever need full 3D if 2 1/2D can do about the same thing but slower I guess. I need to research the difference between the two more, but this software looks like exactly what I need in that it is simple and free and straight forward too. Thank you so much.
Thank you for shareing this with me and everyone that is looking for free cnc software.
Nice tutorial! Very helpful for beginners..
Thanks Bob!
Nice job! I will try it.
Great job keep it up
Well done!
Drunken Woodworker Thanks!
Thanks Bob! Liked and Subscribed. Very well done video and extremely helpful!
Thanks for that. I'm a beginner so it was very useful.
Thanks Bob! :)
Another perfekt Video 👌 i like your stuff

thanks
liked and subscribed!
Your beard and hair was on POINT Bob! :D
Wonderful video. Thanks!
Question 1: What CNC machine were you using?
Question 2: What spindle motor was that?
Can you do a video using a g-Code?
COOL!
Great video,I have a homemade cnc router so can i still use Easel with it?
Very interesting. Thanks
Loved your video tutorial !
Question:
Is it possible to upload a picture to the software, manipulate it (larger/smaller) and cut that shape out ?
Thanks for your generous consideration,
Steph_Louisiana
i love cnc
So, I built my own CNC. I did a pen test in a little are and it worked. My question is I am not sure how to setup the cnc carving area to make sure it does not over travel or how do I Specify z axis to only go down or tell the machine to start here? Just general start up questions.
Can you do a video if not can you point me to a correct location?
Hi, thanks for the video and just purchased my first CNC machine. My question - Can this software do a mixture of depth cuts ie, a depth cut of 1mm on a three mm board, and then a final cut-out depth?
What cnc router are you using in the video? And what is the price requirements for the program?
Thank you for your video. I would like to ask what to do if I have design when some shapes has to be cut outside the line and other ones inside the line? How to combinate? Thank you!
Do you have to edge find and do the work offset and tool offset before cutting using easel?
is it working with any arduino based cnc ?
Is there a guide for setting up a cnc to work with easel?
Hi...
Can l use it for written with pen in cnc......
Will this work with the Glowforge?
How does the software interface with user's CNC machine? Or we have to use their CNC machine?
Could this work with a controller like the Smoothie 5x?
super
i was wondering if easel also works with the yeti smartbench??
Does this software work with all machines? If not what machine would you recommend?
Hey Bob great video mate , I have a small like hobby cnc , can I use my iPad to use Easal and what would be your recommendation for a great but free design software to use side by side with it thanks in advance kindest regards Scott.
Hi Bob. Awesome video and I shall look at that software. I see it is browser based. I have a system that is off line not even connected. Can I save files into G-code? or is there downloadable software? Cheers!
can I use it in plasma cutting machine
So for easel you don’t need a gcode software like ugs. Easel does it all?
Can Easel be used in combination with Openbuilds C-Beam Machine?
Will it work for a laser engraver
Will it work in arduino uno r3 and a4998 driver module
Do you suggest any free software for cnc plasma cutting
I have a foxalien masuter pro, can I use this program to make and cut or must I save from easel and cut in candle? Thanks
does it works for plotters as well ? export gcode (.nc files) from svg?
Will this work with a Redsail X700???
hello I am thinking of getting a carvey but I want to use it to cut names out of aluminium or copper plating is this capable of doing this and will you be doing more videos on the carvey
what do u need to run this on a home made cnc right now iam useing mach3 to spit out the part i am still new to this ben useing fusion 360 but my trial is running out ....

I need your help please 🌿🍁🌿
Hi Bob. Will Easel work with the China cnc usb model 3040 t 4 axis sold on ebay?
interesting.
Will it work for grbl?
Now that you have been using the Shapeoko 2 for a while, how well does the router hold up? Does it have enough power to do all the applications you have wanted to do with it?
would be interested to know this as well. the only gripes i have seen from others on the shapeoko is the knockoff dremel.
Fr. Thomas Bailey, OSB Well, to be fair.. it has handled fine for most of the things I've tried to do with it. Especially when doing engraving work with a v-bit. It's seems perfectly fine for that application. When cutting out pieces from 1/4-1/2 stock, it definitely shows its limits. I've had several situations where it just couldn't keep up, which forces me to abandon the cut and try again at a much slower speed. That's not to say that it CAN'T do them, but I had to counteract it's lack of power with lack of speed.
All of that to say, I think it's a fine tool to get started with and the more you use the machine you'll start to get a better idea of HOW you want to use it. This will probably tell you whether upgrading the spindle makes sense for you. I've got a 300w quiet spindle coming in today, so I'll be posting about how much of an improvement it is (once I find time to install and test it)
hey man there is a free 3d softwr ?
thanks man, how do i export my design to gcode file so i can carve it with my cnc?
r if we use the mach3 and 4 , do we need to apply some software on arduino?
It will work with Arduino ?
is it possible increase working area ? Now it 30*30= 900 cm2 .
Great Tutorial. What type and brand CNC are you using.
This was a ShapeOko 2, but it has since been upgraded to the X-Carve by Inventables.
what cnc is this compatible with? I have a CNC ICarver 40-915 would this program work?
Wow. D Saurwein must be the smartest person on you tube.
Whoa what is tom hanks from cast away doing there, i didnt know "old" Bob
Will it work on IOS Apple
Can I use this on a iPhone if I don’t have a laptop
Will Easel work with any desktop mill ?
I cant see how, so its not "free"
Can’t quite afford an xcarve or onefinity. Is a 3018 a decent machine to begin with? If so may ask, what machine did you use on this project?
Will this free software work with the worked and machine?
Would this work with the masuter 4040
Can easel import pictures from Clip Art to be used in 2D cutting?
i can't use engraver other than inventables models.
hi, can i have Easel on my laptop, thank you
I would like to get your opinion on CNC? I am in the market and I think I have narrow it down to 3 cnc's Xcarve, Shapeoko or Longmill? what is your take on these 3 CNC routers?
Love your video. However, just getting started with my new machine, a CNC3-3018Pro, and want to make something simple, such as a plastic box. That being said, I need to know how I can use a piece of 8" x 10"' piece of acrylic material, and cut a piece from it. For instance, being an 8" x 10", I'd like to cut it down the middle to get a 4" x 10" piece to work with. The piece thickness is 0.080" and would only etch the depth a little more than half way to ultimately snap into two equal pieces.
So far, I can't seem to set the machine in a way to only cut two (x & y) sides, leaving the opposite (x & y) sides intact, and not be cut.
Thus, leaving the two pieces in sizes 4" x 10" each.
Any help you can offer, will be greatly appreciated. Using
Starting anew, Ron D.
Does the software deal well with .stl files? Will the software export to g code?
can it work with cnc 3018
can you do a guitar archtop carve using this? what does 2,5D mean?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D_(machining)
How browser-based app gets an acess to a serial port?
Can you read and edit the .cnc code directly?
Do you have any Korean version?
Hai bob.. is easel an offline(downloadable) software for window9 laptop laptop?
