Hi CstJ

Your main quarry on starting out is....

Do I want to buy a ready built machine?

If you do, do you have £1000 thereabouts? as there are seconhand machines that fall into £800 bracket.

Do you want to build the machine yourself and save some money?

Those two things must be decided and finalised before even thinking of CNC,well thats the way I decided to go about owning a CNC ie I went for the cheape option of self build.

Uptonow its cost me....

3 Nema23 Motors £90
3 Stepper Drivers £128
1 Breakout Board £33
1 Power Supply £35


This is without the mechanics.
