Welcome

This resource was established, in December 2007, to promote FREE or low-cost means to complete CNC tasks for the small business user and the serious hobbyist.   There are many FREE resouces that have been available for quite some time.

In the past there has been no means to identify the most useful, reliable and functional of these FREE CNC utilities. This website aims to meet this need on a regularly updated basis.  It further aims to produce and distribute educational resources, to enable FREE methods to be employed to maximum effect.  If you have an interest in minimum cost solutions to real CNC tasks,  this is the website for you.

cnc4free.org aims to PREVENT CNC users spending money unnecessarily.  This does not lend itself well to industry sponsorship.  The site is funded by user sponsorship and donations. Sponsors gain unrestricted access to cnc4free.org download content. This is an expanding resource, with regular updates.

Please browse the site..  Many useful FREE resources are linked.  Software,  plugins, models, tutorials, useful DIY Projects as well as a FREE  408 page eBook explaining and promoting FREE methods.   Information regarding forum membership is available in that area of the site.
