"If you have ever assembled IKEA furniture, you understand how a flat box packed with parts and hardware can be magically turned into three-dimensional furniture. But why buy one-size-fits-all particleboard furniture shipped from halfway around the world, when a CNC machine empowers us to locally fabricate designs made anywhere, using whatever materials we choose? This book is an introduction to designing for digital tools, and a hands-on resource for fabricating furniture projects with large format CNC routers. It takes you through the basics of CNC fabrication, with step-by-step instruction on software setup, prototyping, production, and construction with furniture projects. Perfect for designers, STEAM teachers, fabricators, entrepreneurs, and Makers of all skill levels, this book is an essential resource for anyone who wants to explore the powerful combination of digital fabrication and design. Written by the founders of the architecture and design firm Filson and Rohrbacher, this book uses their AtFAB furniture series to illuminate the design and fabrication process through simple, clearly illustrated step=by-step projects." -- Back cover
