Using the included 3D carving capability and 3D model library, you can cut beautiful relief carvings, intricate inlays, and create exquisitely detailed engravings with ease. Make custom parts with precisely drilled holes, tight-fitting joinery, and decorative features. With a 16'' x 36'' table, robust linear gantry rails, and an aluminum router mount that supports hefty routers up to 2-1/4HP (or Next Wave’s water-cooled spindle), it blends a mid-size chassis with high-end features. The HD500 can be pendant- or computer-controlled to suit your needs. It's perfect for projects such as carving plaques, signs, ornamental boxes, and precision parts machined from wood, soft metals or plastics.
