Shopbot CNC theory and practical

This course is necessary for new users of the Shopbot CNC at Bitraf to establish baseline knowledge & safety standards that everyone can expect from each other.

It will be held in English.

This course is fills up quickly - be the person that signs up and takes the opportunity to join a course seriously. If you don't turn up, you take away the opportunity to learn from someone else. Book the course time & date in your calendar, even if you're on the waiting list. It is very common to get bumped up as the course date/time approaches.

*Signing up to the wait list means you take on the responsibility to check the event daily (even on the day of/hours before the event) and the possibility to turn up at short notice. If you know it's likely you won't have the time anymore, please change your RSVP to 'no' to remove yourself from the wait list as soon as you're aware.*

*Don't cancel last minute*

** IMPORTANT ** This course is for paying Bitraf members only. It's a free course, but if you RSVP 'yes' and don't actually show up, you'll be fined 300 kroner, as an extra compensation to the course organizer.

Norwegian and English documentation for the CNC Shopbot machine can be found at [https://wiki.bitraf.no/wiki/ShopBot](https://wiki.bitraf.no/wiki/ShopBot) [https://paper.dropbox.com/doc/Shopbot-CNC-Practical-Course--CPuhw4ZeIcusxBHmxQHNSskPAg-oloV0VUdz7KmXWh7OTA9K](https://paper.dropbox.com/doc/Shopbot-CNC-Practical-Course--CPuhw4ZeIcusxBHmxQHNSskPAg-oloV0VUdz7KmXWh7OTA9K)

We start in the *course room* for the theory and move up to the practical section in the workshop after.

Things to do before the course;

• Install Dropbox (for transferring files to the CNC machine as memory cards or USB sticks cannot be used) • Be part of Bitrafs 'google group' [Click here for how to join Bitraf's google group!](https://wiki.bitraf.no/wiki/Booking) • Join Bitrafs slack channel [https://bitraf.no/slack-invite/](https://bitraf.no/slack-invite/)

It's an advantage if you look through the Shopbot tutorial videos: [Shopbot Training Tutorials](https://www.shopbottools.com/training/tutorials)

Upon completion of course you will have Shopbot CNC access via the p2k16 ‘TOOLS’ system. This enables use of the machine to be logged.

Thank you for your time and future attention.
