- Earlier this month, our friends at @themakercollab closed the polls on their annual Maker Collab competition. This year's theme was "music". Although Onefinity didn't officially enter the race, we worked on our own project, keeping with the the theme.
This presented a great opportunity to challenge ourselves with a project Morgan already had designed - a simplified midi controller/sampler. This project would involve a multitude of materials and new skills that had not yet been explored, but Morgan was up to the challenge, and his Onefinity was up to the task!
- Cutting copper
- Tapering thickness
- Incorporated lighting
- Wiring copper to microcontrollers
- Pouring epoxy over electronics
- Coding microcontrollers
For someone who can barely tie their shoes, this was a daunting task.
All said and done, the piece looks great, and functions... almost great.
The big takeaway here is that it was a great learning experience, and we hope this encourages you to try something new because 99 times out of 100, the limiting factor isn't the machine - it's us. Onefinity CNCs are capable of incredible things - we challenge you to find out just how much your Onefinity can do!

Ramble On... would be a good Led Zepplin song to play on your new gizmo! Absolutely love the process and encouragement to get outside your comfort zone.

That is insanely good! I used to have a Korg DW8000. That just looks fun!
It was!
This was so much more than just the build! Love the idea, the thinking/mindset, process and above all, the tenacity. Want to see more of your failures (and mine)!
👆🏻this guys gets it! Plenty more failures to come, and I hope they bring by a little wisdom to the process for everyone!
Awesome, thank you!
This is so cool!
Glad you like it!
Morgan, you're so freaking cool
We think so too!
Good story. I make one non-mistake per dozen mistakes. It is what it is. Always the next way to screw up.
That’s growth!
:p
Morg!!!
Should have gone with Moorg (Moog +korg)!
Anyway, amazing build and pep talk! Know I’m thinking of blowing the dust off my 1f this weekend!!!
Thanks! Dust that bad boy off and make something wacky!
Thank you!
❤
Love!
You are a total whacko, Morgan. In a good way. Thanks for the video and inspiration.
I’ll take it! I hope to make more mistakes you can grow from 😅
Great project Morgan !
Thanks brother, hopefully fewer mistakes as time goes on 👍🏼
Yes it was!
What bit (& feeds and speeds) did you use for the copper?
I used a 1/6" O flute upcut bit. 16,000 RPM, 10 IPM.

Excellent vid and message. So what would be the fix for it to work correctly?
Glad you liked it!
