CNC Mill or computer numerical controlled milling device is used for automatically milling or cutting away at materials like wood, plastic, or softer metals such as aluminum based on a 3D computer model.

Akin to a 3D Printer, the CNC provides the ability to work with objects in x, y, and z dimensions. However, it provides subtractive manufacturing, rather than additive.

The sudo room sign by the intercom at the old 22nd st entrance was milled on such a machine!

Our CNC Mill

We have a brand new CNC Mill as of January 2015. It is a myDIYCNC link cnc thing It comes with a USB connector and software (LINUX).

We'll be learning how to use this and adding more documentation here.

 

The Past
