About

Welcome to my channel. I never planned for my channel to be about CNC or laser work but that's how it went. Back in 2019 I bought a CNC machine and ran into issues. A lot of existing tutorials used terminology that a beginner would not be familiar with so I started a series of tutorials targeted at beginners, breaking things down and hopefully making the CNC journey easier to be a part of. I spend a lot of my free time helping people through their CNC issues on YouTube and Facebook. If you are interested in becoming a Patreon, then please check out the link below. I often give Patreons early access to videos and special access to my own file library. https://www.patreon.com/JamesDeanDesigns If you want to help but do not want to become a Patreon, you can contribute directly: https://www.paypal.me/jamesdeandesigns Thanks!
