Hi all
I am new to CNC but i am the Owner of 3 x Co2 Lasers that i have been running for the past 7 years. I am now looking for advice on a CNC router as i am looking to expand as i am constantly being asked to make thing on the lasers that i just cant do. I know lasers and CNC are 2 totally different things, but i am quite efficient in CAD etc so i should be able to pick up the design side of things.

Anyway i am looking at getting a CNC1212 I Would be grateful if someone could advise me as to what to look for and what to steer clear of as i have no idea to be honest. i have seen loads of videos on YouTube but to be honest they just not enough information when choosing a machine. I would like a machine from the UK if possible as i have seen what comes out of china when i 1st started off with the co2 lasers:)

Hope you can help me.

Steve
