Othermill Pro - Compact Precision CNC + PCB Milling Machine

The Othermill Pro is a portable, precise milling machine that allows you to create 2D and 3D objects out of durable materials, such as wood, metal, and plastic, using digital designs. It's one of Lady Ada's favorite tools, and we use one at the Adafruit factory every single day to prototype new designs, create testers, and experiment with fun new materials

This product is USA only.

No assembly required! The Othermill Pro includes the tools and materials you need to get started cutting 3D objects right away.
