    Wrong Place? What to make on my Router

    Hello everyone,

    I may be posting this in the wrong place, if so sorry.

    I'm just wondering if anyone out there would have any ideas of things i could make on my cnc router.

    Links or drawings or any information would be good as I'm lost for things to make and have had my router built for some time now.

    Thanks to anyone who has read this or can point me in the right direction or inspire me with things i could do.

    William

    What did you intend to do with it when you started building it? Did you build it just because you could or did you have a need for one, that question is hard to answer. How big is it? Can you make doors for your house? or is it small? Could you make hinges for doors? Most people build a machine or buy a machine for a reason. Go to the hardware store and look around and take notice of things you want, and say to yourself, I could make that ......if I had a machine. Then you could tell your friends if they ask where you got it, that you made it yourself, with your CNC router.

    Go to Vectric's forums and look through all the galleries there.
