After 9 nine months of building the Genetic CNC router in 3 generations, I have finally produced the first non-test cut. A couple of speakers for my workshop to enjoy Spotify when the CNC router isn’t destroying my ears.
So, I can close the CNC chronicles now. This is now about bringing genetic fractals out of my mind and computer space into the real world where we can touch them. I might slip in the odd thing that has nothing to do with fractals, like this speaker here, but hey. I can.
I was going to write at length about the sense of personal achievement and what an incredible feeling it is to hold this ‘thing’ that was conceived in my mind and produced by a tool I built. Caveman innovation. The end of a long road and the start of a new journey. But I will spare you the philosophy. A picture says it all.
With that, goodbye CNC chronicles and welcome to my Personal Maker Space.
Looks great! What about carving some ornamental genetic fractals into the surfaces and selling artistic unique items 😉 ?
I like the way you play with different projects!

Thanks Elkememt. Art is definitely among the things I will be making. I have lots of ideas and … I will have a go at selling them too 🙂
I’m also looking and scientific and engeneering applications. Not enough spare time in a day. Though now that the machine is working, results should be forthcoming relatively quickly.
