CNC Mill Design Documentation
This documentation describes the design intent, system architecture, and planned implementation of a fixed CNC milling machine optimized for precision, low noise, and apartment-compatible operation.
The structure follows the causal chain from physical reality, to measurement, to estimation, to supervision and execution.
