CNC Plasma Cutter using EMC2

This page will detail the building of the Mark II CNC Plasma Cutter.

The basic foundation is FrameWorld or 80/20 extruded aluminum.
I designed and built everything except the tubing and the slides.

This is the corner block for the extruded aluminum.

This is the corner block with the belt attached.
