CNC Router
This is my cnc router. I built it by following the book/plans from buildyourcnc.com. I'm very happy with the results. I've still got a few modifications left to do on it. For instance, I have new acme lead screws for all three axis, limit switches and control switches that I haven't added yet. So far I've only cut out a few parts from MDF and plywood. I have a few large hdpe plastic cutting boards that I route into robot parts as well.
