    Knot-Wood To be fair I would think even OX and all the others have small problems with screws they don't just magically fit together all have to work at it.
    Even your woodwork you have to plan what you want to make, you cannot hold an image in your mind and expect it to work first time.
    If you think this part is hard just wait till you get to the control side of it, where do you think you are going to plug in the wire (maybe in your ears) to pick up your image.

    I think you need to sit down and take a long hard look and read at how to build and how to control and make what you are looking for.

    Thanks Phil

    I know it was going to be a journey - but not like this -

    Ok, as i keep being told, but you see these guys on Youtube, read the reviews -

    Home CNC is a plug and play system - the software, the controllers, everything has been built around ease and for it to be scaled up to the thousands, so millions can adopt it.

    Yes they have their shortcomings, but these are home machines, for a sign a week if they are lucky!

    Easel, Blackbox Controller, Powerpack and some motors and off i go?

    Too simplistic?

    All i can say is let me try it!

    Let me come back if i fail, let me come back if it works

    Let me give an honest opinion, in laymen's terms, of how easy, difficult, good, bad or ugly the whole thing is?

    That's what forums are for?

    I am just trying to keep an open mind.

    Just because it has always been done this way, does not mean that there are not alternatives.
