Engineering an Automatic CNC Dust-Shoe

I’m not happy with the dust-shoe that came with my CNC router. So I engineered a much better one. Maybe I went a bit too far because I made it fully automatic and implemented many useful features. The whole thing is a huge project and by no means straightforward. In this video, I take you through the whole process and show every step I went through for tackling this project. In hindsight, I also think about this as an engineering project on easy mode. The reasons for that I explain in the video. I hope you enjoy
