CNC Router
From CoMakingSpace Wiki
This is a wish list page - we don't have this tool yet!
A CNC router is a computerized woodworking machine - basically a router mounted on a positioning system. While it may also be able to handle other materials depending on the bits you use, a proper CNC mill is more precise for machining parts out of metals and other non-wood materials.
There is also an interesting new approach of handheld CNC routing coming out which may remove the size constraints that come with any fixed-frame machine.
