"ShopBot's open archite cture and well documented simple command language, made adding ShopBot capability to my mosaic software surprisingly easy." --Ari Krupnik www.lib.aero/shopbot

From Airplanes to Artwork...

California Engineer-Turned Artist Ari Krupnik makes mosaics out of found objects. Over the years

he's used dice, matches, color pencils, even spent bullet casings as physical pixels. He used custom

made design software and laboriously assembled his images by hand, one pixel at a time. Then in

2007 Ari saw a ShopBot. "At the time I was using the ShopBot to cut parts for a home built

airplane." But as he gained experience with ShopBot, Ari recognized its artistic potential.

With the newfound machining capability that a ShopBot CNC tool gives him, Ari has been able to

tackle larger projects than he ever thought practical, like the eight foot tall rendering of

New York's iconic Flat Iron building made by drilling 60,000 holes.

Ari is an Engineer, Pilot, Artist, and a ShopBotter
