We check out a really interesting design for a CNC machine at this year's Maker Faire. Goliath CNC puts its router on a robot, which drives on top of a plank of plywood while making its cuts. We chat with one of Goliath's creators to learn how it works and the technical challenges of putting a useful router on wheels.
