Basics

  • Part of the Open Source Digital Fabrication Construction Set
  • An electric discharge machining device (EDM)
  • Uses a thin wire, and high voltage electricity to precicely erode away material using the resulting plasma
  • Requires a wire feeding mechanism
  • Good explanation + Demo in this video at 13:26
