Re: Build Your Own CNC Machine - book

Yeah, this kind of a CNC probably wouldn't be top-quality. And it wouldn't be able to cut metal. That's the big deal. But you're right, it would be a great project.

However, at least for my team, we already have a big "CNC/shop bot" for our school. It's just not super great at cutting metal. So we don't really need another machine to cut wood.
