Prepare a summary slide (presentation.png, 1280x1024) and video clip (presentation.mp4, 1080p HTML5, < ~minute, < ~10 MB) in your root directory
Invention
The purpose of this project is to learn and improve my knowledge and skills, I also intend to offer new alternatives and solutions to the manufacture of a 4 axis CNC hot wire foam cutting machine to the community..
Intellectual Property
The project is Open Source Hardware and Software. Open Source is an important way to share not only your ideas but also to receive feedback and implementation by the others.
By sharing my work I'll be participating into a greater community that will help to involve and upgrade the 4 axis CNC hot wire foam cutting machines.

Income
It is not my intention to build a business around this project, the idea is to share the project in addition to having new machinery for my lab and thus be able to offer new services and solutions to the users of the lab.
