3D printing is an additive manufacturing process and has become one of the most popular ways for makers to create objects at home! However subtractive manufacturing methods are another great way to make parts out of wood, aluminum, and more!
One of the most popular methods of subtractive manufacturing is CNC Machining, where steppers motors are used to move a cutter through a raw block of material to create an object!
But how does CNC work and exactly how is it different from 3D printing? In this episode, we take a look at an intro to CNC Machining with help from the FoxAlien 3018-SE, a hobby CNC machine for your office!
