Smokey's CNC Woodworks

Smokey's CNC Woodworks will take you along as I make signs, home décor, parts for other projects, furniture and much more....The machine I'm working on is a DIY 4' X 4' CNC Router that took me about 10 months to build (that day job gets in the way) and I'm still adding to it and making changes as I go. Occasionally we may slide over to the wood shop and do a build or project which will still probably include the CNC because it is such a great tool.

Update!! I'm comin back!

    It's great!! Only opinion I have is the head seems a little too long, but that's just me! I love it! I'm making small ornament size ones with crafting items. I don't measure, just eyeball it. You could sell those and I bet they would sell like hotcakes! Yes, please make the snowman video!!

    Brian, this is a really nice build. How has it performed for you? I'm about to build a DIY 5'*10' table with NEMA motors. Appreciate your parts links, but done are now dead due to the age. But having the part names helps!

    Nice. Been watching others paint signs to ideas on how to do some things. You're the first I've seen using a small airbrush and I think that's great. Lots of control and less overspray into other areas which means less sanding. Good job!

    Glad to see you back. Definitely missed you and your lose clamp intro !! Strewth its hot there!! You don't have winters there? Wet, windy & frosty here in UK . Your old shop froze up & you couldn't work or carve over winter, you'll need to open doors & windows & get big cross flow fans !! (No worries of you getting a fat layer !!) Dont overdo it, have fun & stay well!
