																	This instructable outlines the assembly process of my 2nd generation cnc machine which i designed to be simple to build and quiet enough to be apartment friendly. 
																	It took me almost 6 months to build and design the machine from start to finish.

																	Before starting the actual designing of the machine i did a lot of research on the web. 
																	Building your own cnc machine instead can give you the same results for a much lower cost. 
																	A cnc machine is a lot like a precision drill press with a table that moves in two directions seeing a commercial unit like the one above should help you visualize the end goal. 
																	That s why i started to think about building a cnc router.
