I have a try making my first project with the new Shaper Origin handheld CNC machine in my new wood shop! Still getting it all together...

    So cool

    Thanks for the review, easy switch, a powerbar๐Ÿ˜‰ thanks for sharing

    funny you mention no off switch. I hate having to unplug it and plug it back in when i am done with it for a bit. lol

    Totally cool! This is amazing!!

    CNC means Computer Numeric Control. This is human controlled…Though it is cool. But can't give you the precision of a CNC. Very expensive tool, I'm guessing several thousand. No power switch?! LOL!

    Great feedback for future updates to the shaper software!

    Hey Fran! I got one too and so far it's been wonderful. Of course the first thing I started to investigate was if I could use the shaper to make a prototype circuit board.

    I only watch because I love to hear you chat. I'm a bit dense otherwise x

    Thanks for sharing Fran! So cool. I like your hat!

    When a coping saw just isn't cool enough.

    I'd really like a Shaper Origin… sigh, one day they'll start shipping to Australia.
    As far as the power switch goes, maybe you need power points around the walls with switches or an emergency stop – can't see a "safe" way of having a second power button on the Origin…
