Computer-Contolled Maching

In this assignment we have to make something big on the CNC machine.

As for assignment of week 2 when we were choosing from 3D CAD software to use for the whole course, I designed a table while I was testing SolidWorks.

I designed this table in different parts which is a better practice for making furnitures.
I designed the front part of the table.

After designing all needed part, I exported my design in Vcarve software.
Vcarve is used to generate Gcode which I sent to shopbot to cut parts you want.

I layed table parts in vcarve a cording on how I want to make it.

After laying parts I do configure how those parts must be cutted.

Before cutting parts I initialized coordinates of the shopbot in the software.

I used the appropriate plate to set coordinte of the shopbot.
