I've been thinking about making my own CNC machine. The big question is whether to go additive or subtractive. I think for now, subtractive using a dremel as the tooling tool.
Although an additive system would be tres-cool.

Bokode: Extremely cool tag technology was the previous entry in this blog.
PICAXE programming is the next entry in this blog.

I don't know if you saw it in my blog that I had some parts made in FDM and FDM is pretty neat, however, one thing I noticed is that the parts are quite brittle and soft, that could've been the material that was used though (ABS) and the lattice that was produced could have been a little porous.
BTW, cool blog. I've always though electric vehicles were pretty cool, lots of torque and very little noise except for the whine of the motor(s).
:)
Yes! It was your excellent blog (http://smackaay.com/) that got me thinking again about CNC techniques!
I used off the shelf parts for my EV conversion, but I've recently become very interested in PICAXE programming and might be using that in my next upgrade.
