ShopBot Buddy

Our ShopBot Buddy is our medium-scale production workhorse in the IoT Design Shop. With a table size of around 32″ x 48″, it is an excellent platform for cutting out “big ideas” or for tiling up a bunch of smaller parts for short run production.

Our Buddy has been hot-rodded to carry a 208V 5hp Columbo Spindle capable of 24,000 RPM and can cut wood, plastics, acrylic, and aluminum.
