CNC Machining, Engraving and Etching

CNC machining allows for precise, repeatable woodworking operations that are difficult or impractical to achieve by hand. It is commonly used for detailed joinery, complex shapes, and components that require consistent accuracy. We use both CNC and laser for engraving and etching. 

What CNC Machining Is Used For

CNC machining is used when a project requires precision, repeatability, or complex geometry. It is especially useful for creating parts that must fit together accurately or be reproduced consistently across multiple pieces. The CNC is appropriate for engraving signage, as well.

How the Process Works

Projects begin with a digital design that defines dimensions, tolerances, and machining paths. Material is then machined using controlled movements that ensure accuracy while maintaining surface quality and structural integrity. 

When CNC Machining Makes Sense

CNC machining is a good fit for projects that involve detailed joinery, repeated components, or shapes that require consistent precision. It is often chosen when accuracy and repeatability are more important than purely hand-shaped variation. For projects where organic variation or hand-shaped character is preferred, a different approach may be more appropriate. CNC engraving is great for signs and wood products. Engraving can also allow for inlays and epoxy fills.

Projects That Use This Service

CNC machining is commonly used in custom tables and one-of-a-kind woodworking projects that require precise components or complex design elements. Engraving and etching are used for signs, plaques, and decorative work on larger pieces. You may also be interested in our Slab Flattening & Thicknessing or our Custom Engraving.
