Can I do anything "fun" with our cnc router? ATI 3 axis.
Here at work we have two cnc routers that we use to depanel pcb's We can do the basic shape of the board but that's about it. We have searched all over trying to figure out how to make anything fun with it or cut designs. Are there any tutorials out there on something that will work with our machine or somewhere I can look to get started? Can bobcad do it? If we want to cut some kind of picture out of a piece of wood or something is there a way to load the pic (jpg or bmp or something) and have our machine cut out the shape of it? Thanks in advance for any help.

I have googled ATI routers, which are not familiar to me, just to get an idea what you are using. All I found out is, that it is a machine specialized for pcb board routing. Therefore it is a specialized machine to do just that, and I would not try to do other things and use materials other than pcb board materials, as this could ruin the machine.

Hopefully, he's already figured it out in the 10 years since he asked. ;)
