This Week’s Theme: A Project You Learned Something From Making It

From building my Giant Connect 4 project on my LongMill I learned the right feeds and speeds settings for the bits that were used
From building my step stool on my LongMill I learned how to properly use my clamps
From crafting my noodle board on my LongMill I learned that it takes a lot of patience and learning when working with a CNC machine to create something beautiful
From making my charcuterie board on my LongMill I learned that choosing the right bit to use is very important as it impacts the final results of the product

This week’s theme is a little different, but very interesting. We want you all to share a project that you have learned something from using your LongMill to make it. All you have to do is post your project and within the caption, share with us what you learned from doing it. We’ll choose our favourite projects and send awesome prizes to the creators.
