Although I'd hoped to make my first CNC router myself, moving house got in the way. Now I'm settled in my new home (Tasmania), I decided to buy a small eBay unit to get started.
This is the one I got - or will get once it's paid for and sent :tup:
There was some discussion on another forum about the quality of these units. The opinion seems to be that the electronics and software are crap but the mechanical components are worth the money. I've got a Gecko G540 spare and a copy of Mach 3 so I can replace as required.
I'm sure there are people here who have considered the eBay units so I'll update once I receive the unit and play with it a bit.
Regards
Geoff
