Sundial v1 in place. Fully expect it to get trashed by sheep and weather over the course of the summer, then I can build a stronger better v2.pic.twitter.com/OYxiKCpep8

Copper would probably be pretty nice
have you tried any metals w/ your shapeoko? I've only done wood so far.
I've done nothing :/ It's a pass-on gift, and it came in a fairly beefy enclosure I haven't had time to wrangle into something usable
I made the worst enclosure for mine. I need to make a new one that's lighter. The shapeoko3 is really great though, it's a lot of fun.https://medium.com/thiswillwoodwork/a-home-for-mildred-538a4fe15c1a …
The pros of this vs glowforge seem obvious. Any cons?
In terms of what you can make? I think no cons (very accurate, thicker cut depth, no burn residue on edges) In terms of operations: Very loud, needs (loud) dust collection, need various end mills, can have slow cutting time, more software to learn / toolpath planning is harder
On what you can make, betting you're not gonna beat the laser cutter for kerf width. Not gonna work with paper or vinyl or more fragile materials
Although the software is open source so I'm sure hacking it to run a drag knife has been done
