Shapeoko + EASEL Milling using Meshcam‘s 3D GCode

Via Jessica Hogan on Medium, posted to help anyone use the CUC Fab Lab’s shapeoko milling machine for single sided milling.

My end result is a wooden button that I designed using Tinkercad’s free 3D design software. I designed it to be simple, small, and quick to demonstrate the process.

I realized after the button was milled that I didn’t include the holes in my gcode-derp! I manually drilled the holes with the shapeoko but if you want to include them in your gcode, make sure you click on the very bottom icon in Meshcam to adjust.
