- digdugdirk 4y agoSuper cool project, and they did a really great job documenting the process. That said, a hobbyist level CNC will not be able to make a functional lens. Tolerances are way too high. Maybe it'll be good enough for focusing light and burning holes in paper, but it's not going to be remotely close to photography level.
