Donation

Laguna CNC Donation Fund

Asmbly is accepting donations towards acquiring two new industrial grade CNCs for the space.  As membership continues to grow at Asmbly, so too does machine utilization.  To keep up with that growth and provide more reliable, user-friendly equipment, we are fundraising to purchase two new Laguna CNCs.  Some of the major highlights on these machines are:

  • Larger capacity — Big CNC bed is 5’x10’ with vacuum hold down table and the smaller CNC bed is 2’x3’
  • 4th Axis Rotary attachment
  • Steel rigid frame, rack and drive
  • Industry standard machine coordinates
  • Compatible with a wide range of software platforms
  • Matching machine interface to create a seamless workflow between both machines allowing for more class options and better machine utilization
  • Online support forums, help videos, and project videos created for the specific machines
  • Manufacturer’s warranty (1 yr) and technical support

 

Here are the specifics on what we will be getting:
