There's also this home made CNC that won a Bright Star Laser Cutter :thumbup:

FYI, I interned at instructables HQ over the summer - not only is the site awesome, but the people that run it are even cooler :thumbup: :thumbup:

my dad had a home made lathe, he hooked up his electric drill upside down to the lathe with a big worm gear clamp holding it on. it worked pretty good. it has to have the button that holds the trigger down or it would be a pain to use.
