CNC Update
Finally got a video of my machine in action put together! The whole job takes something like fifteen minutes so I cut it down to about three. By the way, the GCode for this was generated with image-to-gcode, which ships with EMC2. It's inefficient, really. If your circuit has traces, it will mill away everything except the traces. I prefer cad.py, the MIT program. It only isolates the traces, making the milling much faster. So here's the video -
Sorry for the poor angle... Anyway, I'll get some more pictures and videos up to show the results.
