My first CNC dragon.

Assembling the CNC and carving a dragon with my own control software.

From the published video.

Build notes

The video covers assembling the Genmitsu 4040-PRO MAX, fixing a broken limit switch, and writing the control software.

I tested the dragon design in a digital twin before the real carve. The video shows how the carving compared with the plan.

The CAD/CAM and digital-twin software is still a prototype. It isn’t available to download yet.
