// ABOUT THIS VIDEO

This was my first time using my X-Carve or routing anything on a CNC on my own. I found my way through, and it has me excited about the possibilities this is going to open up! In addition to going over my first project with the X-Carve, I also give my initial impressions of setting up the machine and familiarizing myself with Easel, the software the X-Carve runs off of.
