You can definitely do some things with a CNC that are difficult, or painstaking, with hand or jig routing.
<br>
Once you learn the basics of Vcarve or whatever software, the entry level stuff kids are likely to need to do is pretty easy to accommodate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

have a model/brand you were thinking of?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
