In this video, see the PrintNC CNC machine in action as it expertly machines two parts from steel. Watch as every step is carefully executed, from start to finish, resulting in two perfectly crafted parts. Stay tuned for part 2, where we’ll finish the parts by TIG welding them together. This is a must-see for anyone interested in precision engineering and CNC machining.
