I just about finished my machine, and I'm testing it with a pen by drawing my name. I doubled the speed of the video to make it faster. Once I'm done testing it, I will mount a wood router where the pen is. So I can cut/engrave wood.
A few months ago I got into woodworking by making cutting boards. Some how I came across a few videos of other people building their own cnc machines. I did some research and found that its hard to build but not impossible.
Will I will post more videos once I get a wood router.
Here is a link to pics of the build process: http://picasaweb.google.com/AtxGuitarist/CNCProject#
Here is a link to where I got the motor & board from: http://stepperworld.com/FET3roadster.htm
I got the board & motor off of StepperWorld, I'll put a link in the info box.
