| * for a PCB router: This is much more possible to do. It is possible to build a low power dust extractor from base materials ( i actually have all the parts that I can contribute). The noise would be manageable. | * for a PCB router: This is much more possible to do.

| - | ** a spark erosion processor: In such case, there is no dust, no noise, and the end product could be of extremely high quality (injection moulds are often finished with this technique). This method is limited by the available electric power, and in general, very slow. EM interference can be managed by enclosing the working area in a Faraday cage. | + | * a spark erosion processor: In such case, there is no dust, no noise, and the end product could be of extremely high quality (injection moulds are often finished with this technique).
