That's the second cnc machine of that type I've seen. It would be great for a cabinet maker as long is it had a top notch router in it.
Woodworking is noisy in general. I mean you want to have full suction going anyway or have sawdust everywhere. Laser engraving is smelly.That's the second cnc machine of that type I've seen. It would be great for a cabinet maker as long is it had a top notch router in it.
My only issue with CNC in general is the incredible racket they produce.
Wood working is indeed noisy. My table saw is reasonably quiet, just a steady hum. The dust collector makes more noise but it's a lower pitch than a router cutting plywood, and not nearly as annoying. The two loudest machines in my shop are the router and the planer. The 13" planer is a howling monster, I hate using it for that reason.Woodworking is noisy in general. I mean you want to have full suction going anyway or have sawdust everywhere.

I also run a "quiet" compressor. Quiet being a relative term.
My laser isn't smelly at all, it's in a tight enclosure that's vented to the outside.
If that's the only tool you're running it works, though I'd be a little apprehensive about leaving a cutter that spins at 20K RPM's unattended. If you have other work to do in the shop you're stuck wearing ear protection at all times.yeah but with things like Maslow you just program it and walk away, maybe you want to setup a video feed just to monitor from your phone.

I also have neighbors that I don't want to annoy, they're nice people and very quiet. I don't want to be the asshole on the block, assuming I haven't already earned that title.

PS they can smell your laser smoke xd
He's just direct venting, I doubt there is any filtering involved. Granted his unit is not industrial size.A properly filtered laser exhaust shouldn't be smelly at all. Esp a low powered etcher. I worked with Haas / Trumpf German Lasers for etching and welding for over 25 years.

The insulation in my place is very good, and the exterior is brick. Tragically, brick garage doors are still in their infancy and subject to a lot of issues, so I didn't get one. Sheet metal (even with foam on the inside) conducts sound just fine. I've asked them about the noise and the only time they hear anything is when the planer is running.Woodworking is loud in general.
