I love my Benchtop Pro 2436. The accuracy is incredible. I made a few cutting boards. They measure 19x11x2". I made a few cnc machines over the years, but could never get this much precision. There is “0” reveal in the i…

I’ve fished the same lake over 30 years, but always used a 2D paper map, or 2D fishing app with the depth rings (bathometric map). Then I decided to get that map 3D rendered, and cut it out with my avid cnc! Foll…

</div>

Just finished my first project on the new CNC machine. It was a great first CNC project because it was complicated enough to force me to learn VCarve, how to run and setup the machine, develop a workflow, and solve a bun…
