Hi! Some time ago I made a post about My Home Lab where I showed a small CNC that I built. In the same post I said that someday I would post some details on the software toolchain and that's exactly what I'm going to do in this post.
The process of using a CNC to make 3D parts follows three simple steps:
- 1. Design the parts.
To design the parts I use HeeksCAD. HeeksCAD is a free, open source, CAD application written by Dan Heeks.
