Local makers, ready to build it.

There's idle capacity sitting in home workshops all over your metro. LocalCNC started with CNC routers — Shapeoko, X-Carve, Onefinity, PrintNC, Avid-class rigs — and is growing to welcome 3D printers, laser cutters, sewing and embroidery machines, and other home-maker equipment.

I have a machine — get paid jobs

Got a Shapeoko, X-Carve, Onefinity, PrintNC, Avid, or similar CNC machine sitting idle between projects — or a 3D printer, laser cutter, sewing machine, embroidery machine, or other maker equipment? Sign up and we'll send paid jobs your way — no lead fees, we only take a cut when you get paid. We're matching CNC jobs first, with other categories opening up as we grow.

Creating a listing takes an account — that's what lets you come back and edit it, and lets us tell it apart from a one-off lead. We still review every listing by hand before it appears in the directory.
