The Grow CNC, a portable CNC router system:

I am the James Dyson Fellow at the Royal College of Art’s InnovationRCA. I have developed a new type of portable full scale flat bed CNC router. The design is aimed at professional power tool users and maker/hackers alike. The design is modular in nature, and can be bench or material mounted, bridging the gap between stationary CNC machines and portable hand-held power tools. I have built a fully working prototype that features its own intuitive software and iPhone app.
