Aha, a plunge router attached to a Roomba j/k ;). That page is very helpful. Hard to say what it's good for unless you're a dedicated woodwork buff. Otherwise a jigsaw seems like enough for a lot of this.

Capabilities that would be most impressive with a jigsaw:

- 50mm of z-axis travel

- Cuts in the center of a 4x8’ sheet of material

- Repeatable cuts to a decent tolerance

- Cuts made while you sleep

Can you leave the Maslow completely unattended? The video examples/timelapses I came across seems to always have a person removing sawdust (or something) every X minutes.

Good point, probably ill-advised to sleep with it running!
