Description

This list is for the discussion of CNC and related topics including CAD, CAM, EDM, DRO. The list focuses on the construction of home shop CNC machines along with the technologies a CNC hobbyist will need in a Home Shop environment. This list does NOT cover general machining techniques, speeds feeds, or any other type question that would have the same answer for a manual machine. This is not a forum for the discussion of commercial shop issues, but commercial users are welcome and encouraged to participate in the discussion of hobby related issues and the building of machines that are likely to be used in a home shop.
