Get to know newschoolers just a little bit. Than come back and post something smart like that, See that word below your username (3 Posts, NEWB)...... But thanks for the useless quote anyways
master cam is shit for designing but if your using it to create tool paths its pretty bad ass. any tutorials i found were pretty shit your best bet is to just dick around with it for a bit thats how i figured it out trial and error
if you want to design stuff use autodesk inventor if your a student you get a 3 year licence for free and you can import your designs to master cam and then design your tool paths around that design
I would just experiment around in different views. Ive used this for a while, but moved onto mc 5 and other programs for 5 axis machining. Your best bet is to pick toolpaths and learn about facing the top, milling, drilling, ext. Get used to peck drill cycles and how you can manage a tool library. Also get used to making the objest solid.
You can actually preview the maching process and you can see if a tool crashes into the part.
