#### Description

Our Onefinity Elite Gen 2 Foreman is a large-format CNC router for precision 2D and 3D cutting in wood and plastics. Members design projects at home in VCarve, generate toolpaths at the shop, and run jobs on the dedicated CNC computer using RTS-X. This machine replaces our retired [homemade CNC router](https://wiki.spen.cc/books/woodworking/page/homebrew-cnc-router).
