Why CNC Router & Woodworking
With the love of building just about anything in our veins, we decided to turn that passion into teaching and giving back to others.
So why the CNC router. I was given the ability to cross train in Aerospace company in the CNC department.
Within this position, I was mostly trained on running a C.R. Onsurd router exclusive in aluminum applications.
With my hobby of woodworking and the combination of seeing the capabilities of a CNC inside my woodshop.
This sparked a curiosity in me to build the Arduino power CNC I currently run in my home workshop.
Now I’m here to share my knowledge of CNC in a production environment and now blending that into a hobbyist CNC woodworker.
