What happens when your design looks right on screen but the CNC router cuts the wrong size, depth, or position?
New CNC users often get stuck between design software and the machine. A file may import at the wrong scale, toolpaths may cut on the wrong side, work zero may be set from the wrong point, or the machine may stop because the tool, depth, feed rate, or connection was not checked. These problems waste material and make simple jobs feel harder than they should. This Guide shows you how to move from setup to finished cut with a clear workflow. You will learn how to install MillMage, prepare designs, choose tools, plan toolpaths, preview G-code, connect your router, set work zero, run jobs, and solve common cutting problems. The Guide uses direct instructions, realistic project examples, labeled diagrams, visual aids, checklists, tool-setting guidance, and troubleshooting steps. It covers engraved signs, profile cutouts, pocketed trays, V-carved text, reusable templates, and safe shop routines. Built for real CNC work, each section helps you make the next decision with less guesswork. What's inside- MillMage installation and first-launch setup
- Workspace, panels, layers, and project settings
- Drawing, importing, cleaning, and editing designs
- End mills, V-bits, drill bits, and tool libraries

- Choose tools and enter safer starting settings
