We take drawings, photographs, scans and found images and import them into Photoshop, where we modify the images and prepare them for our CAM software. In the CAM software we assign tool paths for the CNC router to follow. We walk away with our images drawn, cut and routed into a variety of materials.

CONCEPT: One of the joys of furniture making is creating something you can act
