Hi guys. Im really happy to say that i should be receiving my first ever CNC machine very soon.

Ive had a VERY small proxxon mini mill for a couple of years now that gets used to make occasional crude one off parts for motorcycle building projects.

Its not CNC, and i find it very tricky to use being a relative novice. I must say ive got massive respect for the guys who use hand operated machines and make it look easy. It certainly isnt!!

I know this will raise some groans and sighs but i opted for the chinese 3020 router as i think it will satisfy my needs after maybe a couple of upgrades.
I only intend to cut styrene sheet prototype parts and then final parts in 2mm and 3mm carbon fibre sheet with it.
Things like dash mounting plates, the odd bracket here and there etc.

Anyways hope to meet some nice people here. Hopefully there are some experienced CNC machinists floating around the sleaford area??

Cheers
Adam
