Working on Solidworks with 3018

Hello I just bought this CNC router very recently and I can't figure out how to work with it using solidworks. I'd like to dm and ask someone how to use it for more tips. Already assembled it and it works perfectly fine on GRBL, YouTube tends to recommend *InkScape* or fusion 360 and freecad to use it

Desktop CNC beginner machines

I want to start cutting small things like letters and smaller detailed things too difficult to do by hand and carving. Are there any decent $400-$600 machines that can help with those types of detailed cuts?

Not looking to do anything thicker than 1/8” material.

Thanks

Help buying first CNC

I want to get into CNC work but I don’t know where to start with buying a machine. I have tons of experience with lasers/vector design.

Can anyone point me the direction of a good set up/brand or YouTube channel for learning? Thanks!
