NEW MEMBER: Newbie alert...

Hi to all on here.

UK based..

I am new to CNC but done lots of reading and researching.

Glad I found this great forum.

I am looking around at what is around and if I build or buy ready built CNC router. (Time and money permitting if work doesn't get in the way)

I have some engineering skills with my own metal and wood lathe in a very small workshop..oh and a 40w Chinese laser. (Converted to smoothie)

So look forward to getting to know and do loads of searching before asking as I guess many of the newbie questions will have already been asked and answered before.. 😃

Steep learning curve on what software and what interface boards used to control all the steppers.

My head is ready to explode so I may need to slow down a little..
