re: Concept and Design

I can appreciate a good cnc project with all the design work, layout and tool path decisions, jiggery to mount the stock and then of course the final real-world activation of the beast.
What I can't imagine is on top of all that prep, you still have to deal with wood and all of its splintery, tearout, movement, and exploding behaviors.
Wish you the best Nathan, watching from afar with my chain mail on!
