In this video I’m going mill a printed circuit board. Something that I wanted to try for quite some time now. It’s milling a PCB. And yes, it’s Windows only.

Parts for making your own CNC machine.

About 17 years of evolution and this DIY CNC Router is almost perfect. Join me on this walk around where I explain why I changed from MACH 3 to Centroid Acorn for the controller. What changes I made on the machine over the years to make it much more flexible for the various applications I have for the router. See a one of a kind, automatic tool change system that uses a common 2.2kw collet type spindle. There is plenty to see and hopefully some good ideas can be had along the way.
