Woodworking on a CNC is very much a software job. I built a wooden remote and for the most part it’s software with a woodshop component. I explored how I made it in detail in a series of blog posts if you’re interested.

Considering your reply and because I now have a lot of opinions to share, I think I might write a Joy of Software and Woodworking article. I feel like I can condense it down to how I figured out how to piece together the parts (cad, cam, cnc, wood) to make the whole.

I’d certainly read it. I don’t own a wood CNC but I’d like to in the future to build some really cool stuff.

Anything that lets me do more with software beyond building web apps is always fun.

Look around for a local makerspace / hackerspace. We have two different size wood CNCs at ours, plus light-weight coworking. No citrus or cucumber water though and members do the cleaning (for now).

How does it compare to having something like a Shapeoko at home?

I'd be interested to hear that.
