A community of designers, engineers and artists.
CNC613 is a project to create a shared CNC machine. People can learn to use it and understand their needs and eventually elect to buy a machine or just use the shared machine. The exposure to the machine and community around it would lower the friction for people to buy or adopt this method of fabrication.
It was initiated by Darcy Whyte and the first machine was assembled by Doug Commons and Dave Hunt. A bit of help from Richard Sloan.
We now have a great community of practice around CNC techniques.

Joe’s CNC” design, made from MDF and conduit pipe/skate bearings for the rails. The “spindle” is just a Bosch wood router. Approximate work area is 2′ x 4′. Currently fits snugly in an 8’x10′ shed 🙂

This week I demonstrated how to make business cards using Inkscape on the laser cutter. Also how to make printmaking plates using the laser. We then tried printmaking using some of my existing plates. Up next participants will make their own business cards, other cards or art. Should be interesting to see what comes forward.
