CNC Slab Flattener/Planer/Thicknesser
Flattening or planing slabs and setting board thickness to specific values is a common operation with many CNC machines. It's also a bit tedious to create a model for it when you are entering similar parameters or drawing the same lines and arcs repeatedly, then creating a set of toolpaths to accommodate your project needs. This web interface is a quick solution to create a file in a fraction of the time.
