Plastic Monstrosity -- The 3D Printed CNC for 4x8' Plywood
Have us print this for you
PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.
This is my massive CNC capable of cutting a full 4x8 sheet of plywood with room to spare! This is optimized specifically for cutting plywood, and I believe this is probably the least expensive way to build a CNC capable of accurately cutting plywood in a reasonable amount of time. There are other designs out there, but I've yet to see another one that maintains performance and accuracy while keeping the overall price below $1000 for a 4x8' cutting area. I really enjoyed designing and building this, and I hope it can help lower the barrier of entry for makers looking to build the kind of things you see on [OpenDesk](https://www.opendesk.cc/) or [WikiHouse](https://wikihouse.cc/).

Thanks to kaoskido for helping me organize this! If you see anything missing, please let me know!
Amazon apparently doesn't want to let me use their affiliate program to link to items, so I'm going to start selling hardware kits in the near future, which should reduce the cost compared to buying all these individually.
