5 Great CNC Projects | CNC Plans Available

I have compiled a list of 5 great CNC projects for woodworkers out there looking to branch into more CNC work. Many of the projects I make are paired with a simple accessory (e.g. dish, glass, etc.) that makes for a unique project idea. If you're interested in bypassing the design part and just want the CNC files I use in this video, they can be found below.

I like your ideas, especially the use of walnut color makes the contrast of the items really special. I also use cnc machine to make the decorations. I am really impressed with your work, a perfect machine that supports a lot of creativity

Dang! I didn’t get past 0:54 until I could find those awesome magnetic dust collector hookup thingees!

Just a tip from what I do. On the lazy susan I opt for running a tool path with a V-bit around the edge before the relief cut. This ensures that the chamfer is consistent, you don't accidentally tip your palm router causing a divot on the edge and your dust extraction handles most of the debris. Other than that, nice projects.

You’re becoming YouTubes foremost authority on CNCs! Great video and hopefully this video will take off so you can sell lots of plans.

I should also add, this was a great idea and fun project! Nice job.

[chrisbruckner]

Great video! On the platter carve, what depth do you set your CNC to carve? Thank you!

[bradleyjohnson]

Terrific projects. I can't wait to get my 1F Journeyman setup

[ronnorris]

Absolutely wonderful beginner carves. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

What grit are you using on that belt sander? I have the same sander, but when I run anything with glue or finish on it, the belt gets totally jammed up. Even a belt eraser can't fix it. Thanks. Great ideas.

[CampfireWoodworksRVA]

Would you mind sharing the name of the font on your beer flight? It looks really nice and seems to carve great.

[totaldatarecall]

Great work, would you mind sharing the name of the software used? Thank you in advance

I did this project right from the DXF. You might include in your directions that your profile paths are "on" the vector and not outside of them as most projects will cut from the outside on cutouts. I noticed as I was cutting this that the two pieces would not fit together so I ran the toolpath a second time on the vector and it worked out fine, however, I can see someone having a bit of frustration here. Also, you might also include the project dimensions within your directions. I got them off your video. I realize you can make this any size you want, however, if someone is trying to replicate exactly what you demonstrate...

[ScoobySnackOG]

Not sure if you've tried this with some of your bowl bit projects but I've been running the first cut to "hog out" the material to get it close the exact depth and then doing a second tool path cut out that goes to the final depth and sped way up and with an increased step over to reduce the ridges left by the bowl bit initial time its run.... not sure if that makes any sense but great projects! Enjoying all the cnc videos my guy

[yorchwood]

Hey, great job!! Can you share the amazon link for the carrousel system for the lazy susan? Im kind of lazy Yorch...
