hello
I am planning to buy a hobby type manual mill for under 1500 GPB. My plan is to convert it to cnc later.
I've done some research about vendors in UK and came up with the following list.

Machine mart - one machine which looks good: https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/cl-cmd300-mill-drill/
most machines from warco: good range of machines that look good atleast. My current preference is warco.
most machines from chester: looks bit more expensive than warco, but there are few machines that I like.
some from zoro - One or two machines with in my budget
most from arceurotrade - most hobby machines are with in my budget but they dont have a huge selection
axminster - Expensive than most other vendors

I would like to hear about others experiences in dealing with these vendors and quality of their machines. My current preference is Warco or due to their huge selection and lower prices.

Cheers
S
