Milling a PCB without clamps
Piccola CNC's vacuum table holds copper clad flat by suction — a rubber cord sets the vacuum area, and the included pump is quiet and can run indefinitely.
No clamps means the whole board is usable edge to edge, with nothing to route around. Combined with height mapping and centre finding, it makes double-sided PCB work straightforward rather than fiddly.
Best with a 2mm MDF sacrificial layer. Available as an accessory.
