    Got my own small cnc/router that does aluminium quite well , but it’s stuck in France while I’m in New Zealand until the house is sold.

    Just wondering if this machine I’ve found is capable of decent doc on aluminium . Asked the seller but no answer yet. Im guessing the machine is just designed for routing wood

    5 grand in sterling. Bit too exp for me but thought it wasn’t a bad price for a factory built machine

    Could be crap, could be good. I would advise against it. I i was buying it would ask if structure is welded, what motors, drives, control, picture of the frame underneath the table, and so on.

    Anyway, i wouldn't buy such a thing. God forbid me!

    For that money you can buy a proper mill. Which is on another level, if you do metals or have a product, etc. Even small mill will be 100 times better

    I understand that completely. My home built cnc router is pretty capable and cost me under a grand. Kind of liked the idea though but glad someone has talked some sense into me. I cant afford that sort of wedge anyhow
