## My CNC Machine
***
### Motivation
I am forever the tinkerer, and I love to buy tools and expand my ability to accomplish things on my own. This has sparked a small journey of mine to
automate the manufacturing of small products through CNC technology. I first started by making my own design from scratch but quickly moved away from that
because of the accuracy that I was able to achieve not being that great. You can see some of the initial results in the image below:

This machine certainly had some drawbacks:
- Poor construction tolerences
- Innacurate cutting precision
- Slow movements
I realized that I didn't want to spend my time working on making a machine and would rather make things with my machine, so I decided to purchase a DIY kit that would solve all my problems
from the homemade one. Additionally, it has more power and is better equipped to do other tasks. For example, because it has a 4th axis, I am using it to make parts for my
automatic self-storage concept.
