Woodworking on a CNC is very much a software job. I built a wooden remote and for the most part it’s software with a woodshop component. I explored how I made it in detail in a series of blog posts if you’re interested.

- matte_black 9y agoWow!
- conesus 9y agoConsidering your reply and because I now have a lot of opinions to share, I think I might write a Joy of Software and Woodworking article. I feel like I can condense it down to how I figured out how to piece together the parts (cad, cam, cnc, wood) to make the whole.
- matte_black 9y agoI’d certainly read it. I don’t own a wood CNC but I’d like to in the future to build some really cool stuff. Anything that lets me do more with software beyond building web apps is always fun.
- ja27 9y agoLook around for a local makerspace / hackerspace. We have two different size wood CNCs at ours, plus light-weight coworking. No citrus or cucumber water though and members do the cleaning (for now).
- matte_black 9y agoHow does it compare to having something like a Shapeoko at home?
- reificator 9y agoI'd be interested to hear that.
