What Are Some Examples of What Can Be Manufactured on a CNC Machine?

What can be made depends a lot on what type of CNC is used.A hobby class CNC router can make just about anything from wood or plastic. It will do a great job making signs, and bas relief carvings.

Since it is only a 3 axis machine it it not able to create 3D objects that have overhangs (where material is remove underneath material that is left in place). I have friends that use their hobby machine to make guitars, wall art, finely crafted boxes, edge lit acrylic art and hundreds of other beautiful things. Your question is like asking what can a craftsman make from clay.

Or what can a woodworker make from wood?A large commercial CNC router is primarily used to cut sheet material (like plywood) into useful items like cabinets and furniture. Although it can also do everything the hobby machine can do.

It can just do it faster and may be more reliable. Then we get to milling machines that are CNC machines with very powerful spindles that are designed to cut metals with very high precision. These machines make a lot of the high end products you use everyday.

The iPhone aluminum body is made on a CNC machine. Basically any part that requires very high tolerances is made on this type of CNC.Next are the CNC machines that have more than 3 axis.

These machine are capable of making very complex 3D shapes (like engine blocks), submarine propellers, jet engine blades. Basically anything you can imagine.

Where should I buy my guitar?

Phils answer is right on the money. However, There is something else to account for. Passion!

If you buy the guitar that everyone else tells you is great, but you despise, you won't want to play it! If you find yourself in this situation, you need to keep looking until both criteria are met.As a guage, the best value for money guitars are usually around $1100-$1800aud.

I believe this is where most intermediate-advanced guitarists shop. The higher the price goes up from there, you start to get less value in return for your money i.e.

you pay 100% more money to get a 10% better instrument. However, 10% at that level is a lot and can make a major difference to playability.I'm not suggesting this is where you start!

Phil is still correct. Although you can do it the hard way as well. I started out with a $50 yamaha nylon string acoustic that played aweful.

Just to see if i liked it. From there i bought a $100 fender acoustic, then a $500 strat pack and now days i have sold or traded them all on and now have 10 different ones. Which is way too many.

Did i waste a lot of money? Most definately! Did i enjoy it.

Most definately! Did I learn from it and was it worth it. Most definately.

Unfortunately, buying bad instruments can be part of the learning process.Eventually you will learn what you like from an instrument. Shallow/deep neck, high/low radius, long/short scale, anongst the many other choices.

More important than guitar choice is how to learn and the same rule applies. Pick a song you like and learn it. Learning boring stuff won't keep you interested or motivated.

The one rule that should apply for ALL beginners is that you must buy a fixed bridge! DO NOT buy a guitar with a Floyd rose or trem! The complexity just in tuning it will drive you to madness!

Whammy bars (the ol wiggle stick) should be reserved for when you are at an intermediate level

What manufacturing equipment would you need to set up a midsize fully functioning furniture manufacturing business for residential use?

Where are you planning to set it up? If in USA- forget it - Even well established shops in North Carolina have moved to China.

Thanks Obama ( and Bush)for all the stupid regulations to kill manufacturing skills, capabilities, and activities of well established businesses in USA. NEVER to return to USA,now Americans do not want to swet in factories-only in a Gym!AND Trump is doing too little, too late.

He is supporting only rich - and trickle down for the poor. The imports must be no more than exports if not- sooner or later USA would be bankrupt.it would be a colony of China- just like India and Pakistan were a colony of British Raj or East India Company.

If you do not know what all machines you need, you do not know what manufacturing is all about and better stay away from it. It depends upon your scale, location, what wood to start from, what furniture you want to manufacture and specialize in, what all you want to market- what quality level are you targeting to sell and a HOST of other considerations. Are you looking at sales in Milions of dollars or Multimillions.

If in USA you will need also a host of ancillary equipment, sawdust collection and disposal system, OSHA related equipment, fire fighting equipment, particulate collection equipment, etc. Also wood needs polishing probably with lacquers or other resins which are now cured with high intensity UV etc.HIRE an expert from the field if you are serious.

Should I go to college for industrial design or start making furniture and selling online? I'm 31, newly married and wanting to start a family soon.

I advise you to do a woodworking course, and learn to use the materials in practice.

At 31, a college course is useful only for your ego - and you want to be doing this on your own, so no need to have a Bachelor if you are going to be your own boss: it is like unnecessary.So, learn how to do that, and put yourself into it. After you have produced some designs, you could take some nice pictures and post them on social media (facebook, pinterest, instagram) - or if you are technically savvy, start a blog, and show others how to do that - while selling your own designs.

You may complete your education later: but to do that, you can just read books about the history of design and how it came this way, and the stories about its protagonists; also, you should stay current on the latest trends of the market by frequenting the international furniture trade fairs in your area (I personally go to 10u201315 international trade fairs per year - every year since about 2000).If you tell me the geographical area where you are located, I could indicate you some good ones. Generally speaking, the most interesting furniture trade fairs around the globe are:Milan - iSaloniCologne - immCologneParis - Maison & ObjectKortrijk - Interieur biennaleLondon - 100% DesignMoscow - MebelNew York - ICFFHigh Point - International Furniture FairTurkey - IsmobDubai - IndexMumbai - IndexSingapore - IFFSKuala Lumpur - MIFFThailand - TIFFPhilippines - PIFSShanghai - Furniture China and CIFFGuangzhou - International Furniture FairGood luck!

How can you tell if you are in a wrong job?

Let me tell you an interesting story that I have read few years ago. With this one can easily find whether he / she is working in a right job or not.

A mother and a baby camel were lying around under a tree. Then the baby camel asked, " Why do camels have humps ? "The mother camel considered this and said, " We are desert animals so we have the humps to store water so we can survive with very little water.

"The baby camel thought for a moment then said, " Okay. why are our legs long and our feet rounded ? "The mama replied, " They are meant for walking in the desert.

"The baby paused. After a beat, the camel asked, " Why are our eyelashes long ? Sometimes they get in my way.

"The mama responded, " Those long thick eyelashes protect your eyes from the desert sand when it blows in the wind. "The baby thought and thought. Then he said, " I see.

So the hump is to store water when we are in the desert, the legs are for walking through the desert and these eye lashes protect my eyes from the desert then why we are in the Zoo ? "Mother Camel :- ******Blank face************Lesson :- Skills and abilities are only useful if you are in the right place at the right time. Otherwise they go to waste .

Here assume yourself as a Mother camel and baby camel as your inner self. And have a same kind of conversation with yourself with the skill set you have.So at the end one can easily find whether he / she is in a Desert or Zoo.

In a nutshell," Have a Career field where youre excited for Mondays. "Happy Reading.Cheers :)Mahalo

Is TechShop dot ws a makerspace/learning centre?

Kathryn's answer is detailed and accurate. She spends a lot of time there, so I won't repeat her lists.If you're not sure what's at TechShop, but you think might be of use, call or walk in sometime and ask to take a tour.

They will generally accommodate you as long as someone is available to show you around, and the staff will be able to answer your questions directly.TechShop is a maker space, in the sense that it has resources for people who might want to make things. They have both tools and people who can introduce you to the knowledge and skills to use them.

The staff provide general help ("how do I use this machine?") to members on request, and can be hired to work on specific, in-depth project questions. They have "safety and basic use" (SBU) classes, which are required before you can use the equipment, and they sometimes have optional classes to teach specific crafts or techniques.

TechShop is great for designing and building your prototypes and making initial, short runs of things. I doubt it would quite take the place of a startup incubator (although it may be a good place for networking and getting in touch with some). It also wouldn't take the place of a job shop, which is the sort of small- to medium-scale production facility you may want to seek out once you've got a design locked in and want to hire someone to make the next hundred or thousand units of something

What makes you unique?

What do you have that other people don't, whether it is a souvenir, an experience, or a life lesson?

As a kid, I thought being unique was a crime and did possibly everything to become the way most of my friends were. As I grew up, blending in became more and more difficult.

I was tall(5 ft 10 in), taller than most boys in my class. I didn't enjoy sitting in the classroom blabbering all day the way most girls in my class did and so I went out to play with the guys. I could never have double standards, what I felt was what I said.

I was on schedule like all the time. I could never argue just for the sake of arguing. These are a few things I feel, made me different from the crowd that surrounded me.

I carry these habits with me even today. I am still extremely punctual, brutally honest and stay away from talking non sense. It has also put me into trouble a couple of times.

I remember once, my aunt came to visit us from Canada. I was expecting some interesting gifts from her, chocolates and stuff but she got me a kurta, that too a woolen one, in the month of April. She took it out of a big bag and put it on my lap.

All of a sudden, my smile vanished. I stared at her with empty eyes. She still dared to ask me how did I like it and I couldn't say yes, couldn't even nod.

It pissed her off, I could see but she should have thought of it before giving me that kurta.I still won't change though
