I wanted to create an easy to replicate machine that anyone can make. Of course building with bare hands wasn't an option for me, that's hard not only to make but also to document. ![]() That's why the idea of building my own CNC machine sparked in my head. Usually, the cost of such machine is really high, most of the hobbyist, small makers can't afford such expensive equipment. That's where CNC milling machines are used. Sometimes I prefer wood, when I need strength, metal (mostly aluminum) is a way to go. Imagine all your furniture made out of plastic. Don't take me wrong here, I love 3D printing and I like plastic (except plastic waste) but there are things that look, work or feel way better when made out of nonplastic material. Plastic is easy to melt, sometimes it's not mechanically resistant enough and most importantly sometimes doesn't look good. When I got my first 3D printer I was extremely happy with all the new possibilities to create things but after some time I noticed the limitations of 3D printing.
