3D Hubs’ online 3D Printing has expanded on the quiet to include some incredible options for all out parts manufacture – and to celebrate this the flying Dutchmen have released a lovely guide to CNC machining.
The follow on to its much recommended 3D Printing Handbook, this online version is a lightweight intro covering the basics, design pointers and how to source and get accurate quotes.
A super sharp way to introduce someone to CNC machining – it’s probably worth having a look even if you’re an old hat at this game, even for some of the extra links and offshoot articles contained within it.
