Introduction
Hello everyone! I am exited to join this community! I have worked for a furniture manufacturing business for the past 21 years and love anything CNC machining or CNC programming related. I have spent most of my past 10 years focused on perfecting CNC files and programming new products to run on the companie's 5' x 10' Onsrud CNC's. I enjoy the process of 3D modeling new products in SolidWorks and then applying tool paths to them in Alphacam but recently I bought my own CNC and quit my job to focus on my home business (Accurakit LLC ) with my wife and 9 children. I enjoy the product designing part of the business but the reason for joining this community is to better understand marketing and product pricing. I have started an Etsy shop (Accurakit) the beginning of this year and have had some success but now am realizing my need for a better understanding of marketing.

@Norman Morgan Hey that is great - I really enjoy Solidworks and it saves me tons of time when designing complex cnc projects. I spent a lot of time with Solidworks designing new products in my last job but now that I started my own business I don't have as much time for it. I got the two year free startup plan when I started my business and am still enjoying Solidworks but unless I find more ways to make a profit with it I will probably have to give it up at the end of the two years because my small business can't justify the cost to keep it.
