Description
iDraw Carve is a 3D carving machine that can carve projects out of wood, a variety of plastics (e.g. acrylic and HDPE) and other materials. Many other companies refer to machines like iDraw Carve as a CNC milling machine or CNC routing machine. If you want to learn more about the carving process and how CNC milling works, check out this support article.
One of iDraw Carve’s key benefits is that it is open source and customizable, making it easy to create a machine that meets your needs. iDraw Carve ships in multiple boxes that you assemble upon arrival. This modular building design makes iDraw Carve one of the most affordable CNC machines on the market and the perfect addition to workshops of all sizes.
We provide very detailed assembly instructions as well as a step-by-step setup program to configure the electronics. Once iDraw Carve is assembled, simply plug the USB cord into your computer, fire up our free design software, and you’re ready to get carving.
