This is an annotated version of my previously released video, “Zenbot 1624 CNC Router Review and Discussion”. This new version replaces the original. With the previous video, I planned to add annotations using Youtube’s annotation feature, but then discovered that Youtube annotations don’t display on most mobile devices. Because of this, I decided to do a revised version of the video, with annotations providing supplemental information edited in at my end.
Per the previous video’s description, I discuss my experience becoming acquainted with CNC technology by way of my Zenbot. I provide some pointers based on my limited experience with CNC, and discuss how I employ the machine in my small business, Rubbergunner Rubber Band Guns.

This video shows the beginner how to make an easy CNC router project from scratch using any CNC router design software. It also lets the beginner know they do not need to be an expert to make projects that sell. Yes, even the beginner can make money with CNC router projects.
The CNC project in this video is a house number sign, designed using Vectric Vcarve Desktop. However, all design software can do this project, including Vectric Cut2d, Easel, Carbide Create, and more.
You will also learn about masking CNC router projects for painting multiple colors using Oramaxk 813. You will learn how to apply the masking and how to remove it.
We will cut the project on the Longmill CNC router (by Sienci Labs) using the gSender control software.

The Mekanika EVO CNC Router is a compact, yet a capable machine that’s aimed at the semi-professional market. I tested the machine for the last two months and will tell you if it’s worth the money you are paying or just an expensive toy! Let’s find out more!
Update #1 22-03-07: The “DI Spindel” upgrade is not only the spindle itself but also includes additional electronics within the electronics box, which makes the €300 price a bit more reasonable but also means that you will not be able to upgrade to the DI Spindle if you purchase the Standard Spindle at first.
