I was recently fortunate to be asked to advise a group of college students who were building a CNC Router Table. It was a fun project and a successful one. The students were from Morrisville College. We designed and built a 3 axis CNC Router table made from aluminum and steel. The router has a 54"x61"x6" cutting area and features a Gecko Drive controller. For software we used Mastercam and Mach3.
