Using the CNC
The CNC machine can make small signs, intricate designs, and 2d parts cut out for 3d assembly. A powerful tool for small businesses, non-profits and hobbyists. Beginners will like the free design software Easel, which is very simple and easy to use. Utilizing the CNC itself has a steeper learning curve than our other equipment, so come ready to learn!
