Make Your Own Robot


My friend Adam sent me a link the other day to this and I really want one! Its called micRo, and its a little desktop CNC robot! This little machine can make switch-plates, outlet-covers, cabinet knobs and other home accessories. It can make circuit boards, A/V components, and any other little 3d object you can think of. The work area is as follows:
X axis total travel is over 13" (roughly 13.375)
Y axis total travel is 10"
Z plunge is <= 3.5"
Its a bit small, but there are ways to extend it a little. Still doesn't take away from its overall coolness.

I'm definitely saving up for one...
