Hi,
I am building a cnc clock from plans at www.woodenclocks.co.uk/ on my home made cnc router. To get the plans in DXF format you need to email him and ask politely.
Here is a picture of my machine at work.

CNCAdmin,

Assembled the clock today to get an idea of parts fit. The fit is excelent! There are still a few parts missing. I have to open a holes in a few gears as the drawing calls for metric shafts and I have standard sizes. Gotta get them to spin freely. It's going to look nice even tho it's just MDF.

Very nice how are you gonna finsh it? Are you gonna stain it?
I was going to leave it in its natural state to bring out the grain in that exotic wood...LOL
Seriously. I am not planning on finishing it at all. Can you recommend a nice finish for MDF? It's like heavy cardboard. there is no suitable finish.
I will finish the next one, which will be some sort of hardwood.

Eric,
You really ought to put a clear finish on it. MDF looks good with a semi gloss finish. Maybe you want to keep it out of the gear teeth and bores though. Also it will slow down the changes with humidity.
