You're not cutting anything particularly demanding (e.g. aluminium/hard plastics) so a wooden machine could be made to work, but that's the point - just work, not excel. If the machine is made from steel and aluminium, the higher rigidity obtained will enable you to cut much faster without compromising finish or accuracy, which is likely to be important if you're starting a business where you want to be concentrating on what you're making, not what you're using to make it.
Done it.
Blackbirds - you may wish to start a build log in this section before this thread gets too in depth. Perhaps when you have done an initial concept drawing would be a good time.
