Shapeoko hookup guides and tutorials

Get started with one of our favorite new products!

One of the new products we've been most excited about lately is the Shapeoko, a desktop, 3-axis CNC machine kit that runs on the SparkFun Stepoko controller. Check out our video of it in action if you missed it the first time around!

We've been tinkering with the Shapeoko and building all manner of funecessary creations, and if you've picked one up since we released them you might be thinking, "YESSSss...now what?" Fortunately, we've finished and posted our new hookup guides for both the Stepoko and Shapeoko assemblies, which should help you get started routing in no time.

Once you've gotten everything put together and flipped the power switch, we've got a good starter project to help you conquer the ins and outs of how a routing project works before you move on to bigger and better inventions. Plus - no more water rings on the workbench.
