Building Furniture?

[Jamie2010]

I am looking at buying the Shark Plus, but have a few questions first.

Has anyone used this machine for building built-in-furniture, entertainment centers?

I don’t have a Shark but the question is the same for any cnc. The Shark’s bed is a little on the small size so you would have to get a little creative with indexing, this is less of an issue with a larger machine but won’t really go away unless you get a really BIG machine, like 4x8.

You can do M&T joints, raised panel doors and frames, all kinds of furniture related joinery in addition to the obvious carving work.

I’ve posted an example of a cabinet made with the help of a cnc in the gallery here:
