CNC Router

CNC Wood Router – My fourth machine. My father likes woodworking and I like steel working. This is kind of a bridge machine for me. I have found woodworking with CNC to be really cool. It has gotten me into 3D milling on the cheap. Think of the cost of 3D milling a brick of aluminum or a block of wood into a shape. That’s right. No Brainer. Wood is free in comparison.



You also need to know your limitations. For example, don’t go designing a metal sign if you have a CNC Wood Router and nothing else. Or, you want to make a 2” thick wood routed sign, but your CNC Wood Router only has 1” clearance. You will need to know you own personal capabilities and your shop’s capabilities. Once you know that, you can improve your situation either through training or purchasing other tools.
