Moser CNC Machine
Since September 2024 — Retired (upgraded into 3D printer)
A custom-built CNC machine made from a tool cart and modular parts. Designed to fit in a small studio, it became one of our main tools for hardware prototyping.
1. The Starting Point
Most CNC machines we found were either too bulky or too expensive for a small studio. We wanted a compact, affordable alternative — and decided to build our own from scratch.
2. What We Built
The Moser CNC Machine was a fully functional, space-efficient CNC that could:
-
Cut wood, acrylic, plastics, and PCBs
-
Be controlled through a browser-based interface
-
Fit neatly into a workshop cart for easy use and storage
It became a daily prototyping tool, turning digital files into precise parts.
3. How It Works
-
Controller: Raspberry Pi + Arduino
-
Firmware: GRBL and FluidNC
-
Interface: CNC.js, browser-based control
-
Hardware: CNC shield, stepper motors, modular tool cart frame
4. Status
The machine worked reliably for over a year. Eventually we retired it — upgrading the build into a custom 3D printer better suited for our current needs.

A large-format 3D printer we built because every off-the-shelf option was too loud, too expensive, or too big for an apartment. Prints up to 48×30×30 cm, runs quietly, and you can monitor it from your phone.
