Rascal CNC

Rascal CNC


​The Rascal CNC is a hobby grade CNC machine designed BY the Community FOR the Community with the simple goal of being able to cut foam board airplanes. Here are just a few benefits of owning a Rascal.

Most capable machine for the cost (under $500 USD)
For the cost you won't find a better suited machine to cut foam board and lite ply on its 30x30" (76cm) cut bed.

Beginner friendly
The Rascal was designed from the ground up to be leveraged by the average Joe. We show you every nut and bolt to buy and teach you how to build and operate the machine. No previous experience required. Its perfect for your first CNC.

There is also a thriving Community of Rascal enthusiast available to help with your machine. They know every detail of your machine because they built the same one.

Shared G-Code library
Not everyone is an airplane designer, and figuring out how to convert PDF plans to a language your Rascal can cut is not easy. To solve for this we have created a shared library of foam board airplane plans that you can simply download and cut. No additional configuration or tweaking required. All you need is your Rascal and some foam.


Your own CNC
Seriously, you can make anything!
