We are mainly wanting a cnc for engraving HDPE & Plastic that we can then use in patterns for casting silicone Moulds so that we have some txt embossed into the side of the mould, also we are wanting to engrave wooden pen cases & hopefully wooden & acrylic pens themselves.
I wouldn't say it's for commercial use, but the penturning & moulds etc is a serious hobby that we are turning into a little sideline to boost our income.

I know these China CNC ones are far from top quality! But at just over £1k for this 3040 USB with 800w water cooled spindle it's the best we can afford! We could even get a smaller machine but I would like the option of engraving larger items like wooden plaques & Clocks etc, unless this machine is defiantly not suitable & it has to be a smaller machine for finer work.

So the big question is, Do you recon it should do the job for us?
