Google Shaper Origin. A new hand held router that is CNC guided to do some amazing stuff,like ACCURATELY cut out gears without the operator accurately guiding the router. Pretty impressive you tube demo.

I wonder how it does parts larger than the small screen,and how you program it to cut shapes not listed in its selection of shapes.

Rather like to the Handibot.

It uses pre-applied custom masking tape to determine its position.

I'd hope the cloud-based sotware would allow import of files.
