foamex... to cnc or not??

[Psychosonicsid]

Hi Wilfy

I made some 1/24th scale dolls houses and the bow window is cut (on my cnc router) from 2.5mm foamex board.

Sorry the picture quality is not the best.

Sorry to barge in on this post only 9 years late... I am very impressed with your dolls house and am looking at doing something similar for model rail 1/19th scale. Having never used a CNC router before this is going to be a sharp learning curve and before I splash the cash wondered about the type of CNC router / bits and speeds used. If you still pick up this thread could you please give a little starting advice on what equipment would be needed to start something like this? I have computer graphics and programming experience and understand the basic concept of G-code, but beyond that I am a total newbie. Am I biting off more than I can chew? Many thanks
