Building an MPCNC!
An MPCNC (=Mostly Printed CNC) is a low-cost CNC mill that you can build at home! I discovered this amazing project after reading an article about the Maslow CNC in MAKE magazine 05/19. The Maslow is definitely worth checking out too, but when I read up about it, I discovered the MPCNC. Two month ago I toyed with the idea of buying a manually controlled milling machine instead of a drill press, but skipped that idea because they are so much more expensive.
For kicks and because I want to mill a guitar body since about 10 years, I also looked at cheap CNC mills, but models below 1000€ were rather small and did not look trustworthy at all, so I also let that thought slide as well – Until now!
