I engrave some wooden plant labels using Fusion360, Candle and a Sainsmart Genmitsu 4030
This would work equally well on a 3018 style machine
Ideal beginner project/exercise to begin to understand Fusion, CNC, Gcode etc.

Gcode I used to set G54 on my machine

G10 G54 P1 L2 X383 Y171 Z44

G10 = set offset command
G54 = specific work offset location
P1 = parameter address (P1 is associated with G54 I think!)
L2 = informs G10 we are setting work offsets (as opposed to tool offsets)

I don't fully understand the syntax above, so use it with care.
Always test your gcode at a safe Z height before committing tool to material
....even if it is wood! I broke a 3mm end mill by not doing this.
