The most used piece of equipment at the Hacker Lab by far. Can easily handle up to 1/4" Plywood or Acrylic, and has been known to get through thicker material in the right conditions. Custom board games, edge lit acrylic plaques, signs, sewing templates, and miscellaneous boxes/enclosures are just a few of the fantastic things that are made with this piece of equipment.  Has been through many parts, and recently through a complete rebuild (make sure to thank John for his awesome work!)
