Hi Guys,
Just retired and looking at extending my woodworking hobby to incorporate CNC.
There is so much choice out there and am finding it difficult to choose.
Would appreciate your guidance on this machine/kit

Never tried building anything like this before but the instructions appear are clear(ish)
Thank you for your time!
Tony
Tony Welcome to the forum. You have not stated what you want to be able to do with the machine cutting wise and size.Quote:

Have a read trough the build logs on here to get an idea of what can be achieved .
Be very careful buying any kits.
Thanks for the advise re kits.Quote:

I don't think engraving aluminium, is something that I would consider doing at this stage.
X, and Y possibly 750 x 500mm
All thoughts of a suitable machine for around 1.5k would be appreciated.
Thank you

I think ooznest started with 3D printers. I would not entertain that machine myself.
If you are looking for something ready built, this might be one place to look; http://www.bzt-cnc.de/en/shop/cnc-po...lling-machines
