It take some time to see the software adjustments, so i can "link" some draw and carving software detail look while is working final result of carving oposite way of carving The wood is not the best, because i wanted jut to make some tests Hope it is useful for the one that want to work with CNC for making small parts for shipmodels Cristi
  3. Michael, excellent job. Nice to see that you share the plans. Cristi
  4. Hi Greg. CNC 2418 can be bought with laser or milling head, or both, as i bought. You can chose between 500mw to 5000 mw laser. It is connected by USB 2 , the sistem is an Arduino inside,it came wit some small software, for carving (GRBL 9) or for Laser print (a smal program, very nice) I will show in my description ( http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/14704-small-cnc-laser-and-router-for-carving-and-engraving-by-cristikc) some new pictures i made today It can "burn" just in the are you made the "focus" the arrengment for printing. You have to use green glases (that came with the CNC) the moment you adjust the focus, else it is ok to look. Hope it is ok for you. Today i found the same i bought, for just 175 USD plus shipping taxes (on Aliexpress) All the best Cristi

The first tests with the laser (hope to have time this days to post some pictures with the carving) from a picture with my granddaughter i started a new test the quality of this picture is not ok, but hope it is ok to you, to see what i can do with laser CNC For carving, i still have to learn a little about GRBL and some additional software.
