  • Excellent book, with well defined code examples.
Format: Hardcover
Used this book to teach myself how to run a Fanuc 10T Mori lathe that i purchased. I had zero G-code experience prior to this book, i have been running the machine for about 10 months now and still use the book as a reference all the time. It's very well written and organized. And there is plenty of room to write your own notes in as every control will have it's own idiosyncrasies. ... show more

  • Best G-code book I have found.
Format: Hardcover
After 45 years of running manual lathes I purchased a HAAS TL-2 lathe. I make my living with my lathe and I had to teach myself and get to profitability fast. This book paved the way and I keep my copy at the lathe for a reference. I don,t know what I would have done without it.

Format: Hardcover
This book is not for beginners. You had better know the subject pretty well for this book to be any help.

  • Very definitive Gcode and Mcode reference.
Format: Hardcover
I have been searching for ages for a book like this. It gives a description of each code, a diagram of the effect of it, and an example (albeit only the code snippet rather than in extended context). A must for anyone getting into the code in depth.
