The guys at Lumenlabs lost a little sleep over the critical comments made about their new micrRo CNC robot. (You mean there are actual people on the other side of the monitor glass, with feelings, that can actually be hurt? I had no idea.) They made a series of videos that show the bot cutting a 1/2 piece of aluminum stock and then carving the name micrRo into it. Hit the link below to see the entire series of videos.
