It’s new, and we’re still working on that sort of thing, but some of it is in common with the previous models, so please see:
- A PDF with a dimensioned drawing of the Nomad table, documenting all holes (so that we can design wasteboards and jigs).
Not sure what you mean by:
- A PDF with a drawing of the tool holder, so that we can model it in our CAM tools.
- An up-to-date “feeds and speeds” table, updated for the Nomad 3’s higher spindle speed.
The high end of the Nomad 3 spindle range and the low end of the Carbide Compact Router overlap, so things written for the Shapeoko may help.
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9bceJxpqG0 for concepts on this and see the series #MaterialMonday: #MaterialMonday on YouTube for specifics.
You should test feeds and speeds in a piece of scrap using the technique at: Calibrating Feeds and Speeds When Using Carbide Microtools
Another consideration is Climb vs. Conventional Milling and tooling engagement — where possible avoid slotting and add geometry and cut as a pocket (Adding geometry to cut as a pocket with a finishing pass ) and consider leaving a roughing clearance and taking a finishing pass.

- A Fusion 360 tool library that includes things that come with the Nomad: machine definition for the Nomad (including precise working area dimensions), the tool holder, and the two mills, with various materials (basically a library version of the “feeds and speeds” table).

- Ideally, a STEP model of the Nomad table (to make it even easier to create wasteboards and jigs).
I think this might be linked at or discussed at: Vise and Jig in Fusion 360 - #6 by Heathenx — pretty easy to make from the PDF above.
