Roc-tech CNC Router adding value to recycled materials!

CNC Router adding value to recycled materials!

Nicko is using the old to make the new. In his shop, Roc-tech Machinery Co., Ltd., he is taking discarded solid core wooden doors and using his Roc-tech CNC Router to change them into tables that are attractive and artistic.


With the demand for more and more green products, Nicko is making good use of materials that would end up in the landfill otherwise. By using the reclaimed doors he is saving the energy, trees and water that were used in the initial processing and giving them new life for years to come.


We love the work he is doing and Nicko was great enough to send us some pictures along with descriptions and we wanted to share some of them with you.

First a bit about Nicko's CNC Router and shop configuration:


Nicko purchased the 4' X 8' Roc-tech back with the vacuum bed and 3KW HSD Spindle.

He used some of the reclaimed doors that were not suitable for projects and attached them to the studs in the wall and built out a hutch for the computers, dust collection closet, "tables-in-progress" storage and a big shelf area overhead for random tools and whatnot.
