Using a CNC in the wood shop

A stunning piece of furniture Andrew pleased your making use of the router in making your furniture.

Regards probing the glass then a better way may be to use scanning software like this. Not contact is required as it works using a camera by looking at contrast to detect the edges. Great for copying templates etc or any 2D shape but not much use for 3D surfaces.

Andrew,
I like the table. The next questions have to be 'how did you cut the glass?' and 'what tool do I need to cut glass on my CNC machine?'.

Dean,
That's an interesting bit of software, made me thing of Devmonkey's work for tracking lasers and taught wires. I watched the example videos and the designer is deliberately making life difficult to show what the software can do to find an edge in the image, but the job would have been much simpler if he'd chosen a sensible contrast colour for the background which is what a sensible person would do in practice.
