So what is a CNC wood router? A CNC wood router is a tool that creates objects out of wood. The CNC wood router works much like a computer printer. First, the design is created on the computer in a CAD program, then it is sent to the CNC wood router to make the hard copy of the design into the block of wood. Instead of using ink or laser toner to "print", the CNC wood router uses several different cutting tools to accomplish the task.
Most of the time the CNC wood router uses a router tool, but there are many options available to create the 3D wood design in your furniture or cabinetry.
