I've been working with Carbide3D for a few years now. When I was looking for my first CNC I contacted several companies that I was interested in working with and Carbide3D was the only one that wanted to work together. They provided my machine to me as a part of that partnership. You should do you research and decide what machine is right for you and your shop.

Hi Matt. I'm a Christian woodworker like yourself. I'm from an island in the Caribbean called Trinidad and Tobago. I'm just starting up and love watching your channel. May God bless you 🙏 and keep up the good work. You are an inspiration to me to keep trying to better myself with my limited resources. I hope to one day be as successful as you. Thanks again. God ble
I have a Shapeoko 3XL. I knew absolutely nothing about a CNC but my son gave me most of the money to purchase mine several years ago for Father's Day. The company has great customer service. I had issues with my machine on Thanksgiving Day a few years ago and had several items I needed to finish up for some customers. I e-mailed the company and someone responded to me on Thanksgiving Day and even did a FaceTime video chat with me to figure out the issue. The biggest issue I have had with my CNC is with disconnects related to Electromagnetic interference (EMI) when using my dust collector. The CNC is a great tool that is fun to use.
Great video, Matt! This is so helpful for me while I am getting started working with CNC’s
Thanks for the video Matt, very helpful. Just wanted to say that your videos have inspired me to make a channel of my own.
Just started the Cnc journey with onefinity. Thanks for more insights.
Another super informative video Matt! Longtime subscriber here. I have learned so much from you. Thank you!
This is an excellent list!
Another type of detail sander to consider is a pneumatic sander. Several companies make small, air-powered, random orbit sanders that work well for detail sanding. I have a 2" one from Harbor Freight. (HF no longer sells this sander, but similar sanders are available elsewhere.) These sanders are much less expensive than their battery powered peers -- provided you alread own the air compressor. Air sanders (and other air tools), require a lot of air to run, so you'll need a large air compressor. I have a 27-gallon compressor that runs on standard household current. It runs my 2" ROS and small die grinders without a problem.
Why go pnematic rather than battery powered? The advantages of air tools (besides the lower cost) are they are lighter, more compact, more durable, and (generally) are more powerful. The downside is the need for an air hose. Since I only use mine in my shop, the need for an air hose doesn't bother me. I simply drop a 1/4" coiled air hose from the cieling above my work bench and I quickly forget the sander is attached to a hose. It simply doesn't get in the way.
YMMV!
Great video, very practical and positive!
I knew a maintenence man who work in government building. He free hand painted people's name and ageny by hand on glass. He new 6 different trades I will always have get respect for him.
Great video. Thanks Matt
Thank you Matt!
Matt I heard a good saying regarding learning. "Never say I can't say I have not tried it yet" . Try everything with your cnc. Mistakes is a learning curve
Great video Matt
Thanks a lot for the waste board shout out Matt! We’re really glad you like it. If anyone’s interested I have a couple RUclips videos about it on my channel as well.
You really ought to do a review on some of Shapeokos competition, much like you do between Milwaukee, Bosch etc. I’ve had Shapeoko in the past and am currently in the Onefinity team and would love to see different peoples perspectives to maybe “change my mind.”
Did remodeling on 100+ year old houses. Sometimes I needed to replace some wood. But nothing in the lumberyard matched so I would need to Have a cutter made to match. The same is true for your CNC once you have the program created you can go to town making your product.
So cool!!!! Thank you for the content Mighty Matt!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for doing this video. I love your content but my shop is primarily CNC, Laser and wood turning but I watch all your videos
Thank you 👊🏻
I agree, the green t-shirt is a much better choice than bright yellow
thank you Matt, for such a great video, I just payed for the shapeoko 5 pro with the 80mm vfd 220v as I am in Australia and we only have 240v over here, I think your video is far more intuitive out there, wish I saw this before sending my money, I would have spent more, ha ha, I am having trouble connecting to .c2d, i would appreciate any help in that regard, I am so green in that department, as I am 77year old and computers did not exist in my days, hence the green part. I am an Australian Vietnam Vet and wood working seams like a great way to use my time I strive to get proficient at CNC work, thanks mate and all the best to you. Allan
After 2 1/2 years of using the painters tape and CA glue method, I've decided to give your way a shot. I clicked on the link! 😄 Say - as another possible time saver, do you finish all your catch-all trays with mineral oil? I've been hand finishing mine and it takes tons of time, especially for the detailed ones... if your answer is yes, it'll save me tons of time as I start prepping for Christmas. Great video for people looking to me the leap!
Just a heads-up: the down-cut bits mentioned at 3:10 can easily start a fire, so I wouldn't recommend them for beginners. Great video overall, thanks!
One thing to add is the new spindle is 220. There is still the option for 110 but they offer the bigger spindle now. I'm fighting myself currently on whether to buy one or not that's how I know 😂
Thanks for the video, Matt! But what I'd really like to see is the projects you're working on. What have you built lately? What are your top sellers? What new carpentry skills have you learned or improved that you can share with us? Again, I appreciate your very thorough reviews, but I miss your project videos. INI - Peter
For those who are like 731 and myself, religious, Titan is a kind of modern day Saul from the Bible. He’s doing GODS work today, but like Saul, Titan has a rough beginning. He helps our kids and adults with a wonderful but lost art of machining. He has put together an absolutely wonderful program to apply cnc to people.
He doesn't do projects for the most cause they don't make money from them plus anytime he does he gets accused of stealing other people's plans
Can an enclosure be ordered with some of the cnc rioters? I ask because I would prefer to have air blower system vs vacuum. Then just vacuum enclosure when it gets too full. For the fasteners for the clamps….if you use steel or stainless t nuts in the track, use aluminum screws. This will save you a few carbide bits if you crash. The stainless screws are a bit harsh on carbide and high speed steel cutters if they are crashed into. You could try brass screws too, but aluminum seems to break less bits. Brass seems to suck the bits in easier and it can be a50/50 on if you blow up a bit/cutter.
I strongly recommend everyone learning any cnc, go check out titans of cnc academy. Like 731’s program, it too is free! It’s a thousands of dollars of knowledge from the cutting edge experts in cnc just doing GODS work of giving it away for free, well your time.
Hey Matt, hope all is well have you seen the new Milwaukee van storage system?’?! Def need to review them they look awesome
The thick and stick double sided tape is turners tape. Yeah, don't use it as a replacement for jobs the only require double sided tape. It's thick and sticky for a reason: objects on a lathe can be under high stress, so strong tape is needed. Additionally, turners tape needs to be used relatively quickly as the thick adhesive will run out of the tape roll over time and become a mess. Ask me how I know that. Ha ha!. Great tips!
If you have a lot of tool marks at the bottom of a bowl, or on a flat surface, this could mean that your spindle is not sitting perfectly orthogonal to the surface. In other words, the spindle could be tilted in the X or Y direction. If this is the case, you need to trammel the machine and make the appropriate adjustments. This leads to something I didn't realize when I got my Shark HD5, these machines need more maintenance than some other shop tools. The rails and ball screws need to be cleaned and lubricated often to keep the machine moving smoothly and the bearings need to be lubricated after about 50 hours of run time.
Love the video! I'm starting out on youtube and I do alot of work on the CNC, I have the shapeko 3 XXL, but hope to upgrade to a newer one eventually. Looking forwards to future videos! Keep up the great work!
Has the RIKON 12V 2in Sander/Polisher Kit been discontinued? No one has it in stock.
if your building nukes or 737’s that doors won’t fall off of then the CNC is the go to method . I want to feel the wood ,the edge , See a knife make ! See a saw mark .feel the love . Can a CNC product give that ?
Cheers !
Honest question for all. What size is a small garage. I hear this term often and what ever garage space I am allowed is a small garage. Lol. However I have a normal sized one car garage with a 7 foot tall x 8 foot garage door if that helps. I know others use smaller. square footage is just under 300.
Do you have any experience or knowledge of the Shaper Origin? I’m wondering how that compares to an actual CNC machine like yours
Hi Matt, I purchased the same cnc as you now have last December and honestly I just haven't had a chance to do anything with it other than to download the software from their website. The one question I have for you is how do you know what bit to use at what time 🤔🤔🫣, does the machine software tell you what bit to use from the beginning and does it stop during the process of making something to tell you to change the bit?. This is one of my concerns I have especially when I hope to be having a go at making something in the next month or so 😳🤯. As always buddy 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
I recently got myself up to speed on running the Shapeoko Pro. Started from ground zero. When you define the tool paths, the Carbide3D software gives you many cutter options, and then provides you a visual simulation and a time estimate, as you play around with cutter options you'll quickly get an idea of the cutter styles you'll use most often.
Great video! You got a video on those hammers?
Search his videos
LOL, I just realized I posted twice. And no I am not affiliated at all with titan. Just an d school machinist trying to bring back a during trade.
I really like your channel. Can you do some more build videos? This is an informative video but I’m nowhere near able to buy a CNC yet.
Build videos don't make money it's not worth doing
@@davidcorliss Plus you can produce 10 of these to 1 of the build videos.
@@davidcorliss wasn’t asking you to do build videos
@@mweath281 I am just repeating what Matt has said himself
I have a Mac house and haven't found a good (easy) solution for using the Mac to control the CNC. Thinking I might have to buy a Windows based laptop just so I can get into a CNC. That alone has stopped me from moving forward into the CNC purchase.
Relatively budget PC will do, that’s a non issue!
I'm July 31 too. :-)
can you make a vacuum table to hold down pieces?
Absolutely, many CNC operators use vacuum tables.
Or start learning with Mark Lindsey cnc. with many different language subtitles
Hi Matt: Just to help, it's pronunced "mitt-you-toy-oh".
Wish I had the room (single car garage) and the $$$, what is the layout of you shop?
Approximately 22 x 20 (2 car garage). But a 8x10 section in the corner is taken up by my home gym.
Great information!! Great video! I'll definitely come back to it when I'm ready to buy a Shapeoko 7!(😅)
My problem with cnc is like many people is money
My son upgraded to a larger and better CNC and gave me his old machine. After a couple days of finally putting together a space to put the machine, there it sits with little to no interest from me to get it up and running. I enjoy woodworking and just have no desire to learn a CNC as I currently have no use for it.
I actually dont like the digital calipers. I like the dials because no batteries but also the dial doesnt turn off.

Ive got a price tag issue
VFD is quieter too isn't it? Some spindles are DEAFENING!
I don't think I will ever get a CNC machine. I spend enough time on my computer as is. And I don't like the idea of just downloading a file and then watching a machine doing what I enjoy doing using my hands - and sometimes my brain...
Yeah, but the CNC can do stuff that is extremely difficult or impossible to do by hand
Life doesn't involve a computer.
Work involves a computer.
I get what you’re saying, but if you learn CAD/CAM, there can be satisfaction watching the CNC create what you designed.
You need to update your RUclips counter behind you.
He filmed this before he hit 600k subs
❤👍👍👊
Also do not buy Milwaukee detail sander paper. Its expensive and low quality. Buy 3m in a roll or just cut out sandpaper from a pad
Honestly I don't like them. Hand made means hand. Not saying I won't buy a product made by one. That is for a new generation of wood workers.
My only advice for people is just be careful with the files you buy off of Etsy... some expressly forbid you from using them to sell items made from the file. They are for personal use only. Maybe they never find out that you have broken the terms, and plenty of sellers don't have that clause in the sale, but some do.
Would love to have one but todays economy 99% of people can’t afford a cnc machine. Thats the only problem I have with cnc’s they take away the need for actual woodworking skill and take customers away from hand worked shops
