Questions

Is it free?

Yes, 100% free. No paid tiers, no hidden costs. Just join and start talking.

Do I need to be an expert?

Not at all. We have complete beginners and 20-year machinists in the same channels. Everyone starts somewhere.

Is this just for CNC stuff?

CNC is the core, but we cover 3D printing, electronics, metalworking, woodworking — basically anything you build with your hands (and machines).

How active is it?

Activity ebbs and flows, but the server is meant for practical build discussion rather than nonstop chatter.
