Badge & Build: Shapeoko CNC

Curious about CNC milling? This hands-on session will get you safely up and running on the Shapeoko Pro, MakeHaven’s desktop CNC router. You’ll learn how to operate the machine, complete a small test cut, and earn your Shapeoko Mill badge, unlocking access for independent use.

This badge is also a required step toward using the Tormach CNC mill—so if you’re looking to move into advanced metal milling, this is one of the steps along that path.
