It's Here, It's Here!

The new CNC arrived and my husband was like a kid on Christmas morning. This is not just a new tool, this is a super cool new tool that has made some of his friends quite envious. He’s currently the popular kid.

The CNC arrived well packed with many, many parts. The website tutorial video said to expect 2-3 hours for assembly. Most of the how-to videos from other customers said to expect 6-8 hours for assembly. It took us 8 1/2. Not great, but not bad for first timers with no CNC experience. Everything went together correctly and worked the first time, so you can’t ask for much more than that. We were even able to run the initiation program that tests that everything is working correctly. Woohoo for us!

Now we just have to figure out how to actually run the thing, get it to cut out what we want, and not get wounded in the process. You know how it goes, old dogs and new tricks.
