Good video/reading for a newbie

Videos wouldn’t’ve been me — I never watch them — I might have suggested Winston Moy’s channel and the Carbide 3D one:

For reading, there’s the wiki of course: https://wiki.shapeoko.com/ and the Guerilla Guide: http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/gcnc/ and the various quick starts:

The problem with a plan is that folks pretty quickly diverge after the basics — ideally everyone would work through http://docs.carbide3d.com/tutorials/ but folks want to jump into the deep end.

If you’d let us know what sort of work you want to do we might be better able to help.
