Repairablemachines: miniCNC

This is a desktop-size, open-source milling machine in kitform, built from lasercut parts.
We know several people have tried to put a Dremel inside a Makerbot, but we don't think this makes much sense. You'll have a high center of gravity and a light frame. We love our Makerbots, but we think if we put a Dremel toolhead in them, they'll just vibrate apart :)

We designed something from the ground up to be stable, rugged and still light-weight enough to be carried around. (actually, the one I'm showing in Paris this weekend now features a suitcase handle on the steel frame)

The machine has an open floor, allowing it to do a milling operation on a large object.

The machine was specifically developed to have a low center of gravity and be a portable, yet stable platform.

The machine uses a microATX 12V power supply and Makerbot electronics

The current version has a 175x175 mm cutting area.

The machine can easily be enlarged along the X-axis, as the machine is built from
