At Home: Hobby CNC Woodworking Machine



A homemade CNC woodworking router is often referred to as hobby CNC routers. These homemade CNC woodworking machines are usually based on plans which can be bought or downloaded. They are unique, since this would be based on the person who would build and use them, their needs and budget.

Woodworkers are seeing the benefit of building their own CNC router since this would cost them less than buying a new or a used one. If you are a hobbyist or catering to small orders, then getting a do-it-yourself CNC router would help you in your production and increase sales.

Though the benefits may be great, there are still woodworkers who are not confident enough with their CNC router building skills. Others may have technical background, while others may be completely clueless. To help woodworkers, there are different websites and forum where they can interact with other woodworkers and ask them about their CNC router building experience.

Hobby CNC wood routers are small and could be placed on the top of a table or counter. They are portable and could be relocated. There could also be bigger sizes. Of course, the size of the CNC wood router you will be designing will be based on what kind of furniture or woodwork you are planning to do.

Determining the size of CNC router you need would help you figure out the components/parts you may need and the corresponding budget. Figuring out the budget will help you narrow down your choices, whether you are buying a kit or build one yourself.

If you have mechanical or CNC building background, then it would not be necessary for you to have the kits. All you need is have a plan and build your CNC wood work. There are also CNC router kits and plans. However, some builders feel that following the directions, exactly as they are, fails to meet their needs. Since they have to follow the plan, considerations in designs and sizes (or whatever the builder needs or wants) may not be accommodated by the plan. This would leave builders operating with CNC routers that they do not want or need.

There are also credible and reputable websites that offer tips and advice. The internet is a great source for information. But there are no guarantees that ALL information offered on the internet is credible. Double check the information you have gathered online, ask and verify with other woodworkers and professionals.

When designing your CNC router, it is important to come up with a good and solid plan. Your plan will be your instructions when building your equipment. If the plan is insufficient, then it is possible that the machine would not be able to provide for the woodworker’s needs.

Building your own CNC woodworking equipment like a router would surely require you to work hard and can be very difficult. It could be hard but rewarding since you get to use something you actually build. This challenging experience could alert you on what to expect with woodworking, whether you are considering at as a hobby or a source of income.
