To get the parts go to: to view and download the parts for CNC routing. For more information go to the resources page here: There are more settings as well but I won’t go into that.

I chose a 2d contour and set the speed to 18000 rpm because I was using the DeWalt DWP611 Router. After generating a setup, I then configured the path for cutting out the part. I did this because my material is ¼ inch thick (6.35mm), therefore ensuring that the bit will cut all the way through. I created a setup for each part, setting my stock to be 266.7mm by 266.7mm and 20mm thick. To generate the gcode I used the CAM environment that is built into Fusion 360. My design fits in a 10.5 inch cube (26.67 cm),which is the maximum size my router can handle. The first step in creating a part is making sure it will fit. Now that I have a design, it’s time to start building it!

Next, I thought to myself: “How do I add an interesting way to interact with this device?” I had already used Google Assistant, so why not use Twitter? The latest tweet shows up on the LCD, along with whom it’s from. I also chose to use a stepper motor to drive a paddle which would dispense wrapped candy from a funnel.
