This really doesn't have anything to do with CNC work, but some may find it interesting anyway.
There's a very loosely-knit organization of signpainters, carvers, muralists, etc called "Letterheads" where the common denominator is your willingness to share your knowledge. Although "Letterhead's Meets" can take place anywhere someone is willing to host one, & can attract handfuls or hundreds, I'm active in a group that is mostly Saskatchewan based & has an annual event.
We just got home from one in Kamsack SK named (they're all named) "Letterheads in the 'Sack"
4 of the 8 of us have a CNC, but there was very little carving at this one .... mostly hand-lettering. Beyond the learning & sharing, there's a lot of silliness as well. Also, 5 of the 8 enjoy a wee dram or 2 of single malt Scotch.
Here's some pics.......
