Jazz is pretty well known and well regarded ..
Whatever You buy from him will work and be a very good compromise for 10x less money than the big names in the field.
Imho.
I´m not his friend or whatever.
And 95% of his advice I agree with, with 20% of style being less than optimal.

A 10x5 "light-industrial" machine with full auto toolchanger, that I think is absolutely mandatory, will run around 15-20k.
I think.
Toolchanger and "industrial" add about 5k to the ticket.
But they also make the output about 3x, often above 500 - 1000 - 2000 € per day in cuts in production.


The Haas GRS used to cost about 70k€ and up.

One can get a light-semi-cnc without a toolchanger and sensors and probing and io and robust controller for about 5-7k.
From jazz.
For lots of jobs and use it can be an excellent option.

Would be closer to the lower end, more like 12-15K.

More like +10K to step it up to the Industrial level.

Not a 10 x 5 or 8 x 4 from me they can't.!!

Hi Jazzcnc, I am new to this forum stuff but I have noticed that you make CNC machines, could I get some more info as I am looking to get a machine that has a 1mx1m working area, I am mainly looking to cut resin and wood but will most likely end up cutting a lot of different things.

Hi,
I can't contact you through private message yet as you haven't been around long enough so haven't posted enough yet. You need to make about 10 posts I think before Admin allows it. So if you make more posts then eventually I will be able to send you my details. I won't post them on a public forum because I'll have some wack job ringing me in the middle of the night but I'll happily give you my numbers and email.

Here are a few questions so you can boost your post's. Answering them one post at a time will speed things up.

Why 1m x 1m.?
It's more common to work in sheet sizes or some division of a full sheet. ie: The nearest to 1m x 1m would be 1250 x 1250 or 1300 x 1300.

What's the thickest material or longest cutter you'll mostly want to use.?

Bench mounted or free-standing.?
