First tool ban is here! A new law was just signed in New York that requires blueprint blocking technology on every CNC machine, laser cutter, lathe and 3D printer. This affects everyone who makes, builds or fixes things. This isn't a firearms law. It's a manufacturing law. And they buried it in the budget because they knew exactly what it was.

I mean if they caught you machining gun parts yes, but CNC machines accept GCode from a text file or hand typed on the controller...they aren't stopping that.... Yet
