Thank you so much JazzCNC, I needed to hear that. I had not researched that too much. I thought that WC spindle was what i was looking for. i actually have a 2 hp motor with a 4hp VFD just laying around. I bought it for another project in the past and never let it go due to this exact scenario. I have seen this one used in youtube videos for cutting wood but I'm unsure if it would be ok for steel and other materials similar. Do you have any guidance on spindle information for cutting varying materials? I will do my due diligence in the meantine but will look into a recommendation with extra care. Thank you all for taking your time to respond I really do appreciate it. Please keep the info coming for the optimistic new guys trying to further themselves in CNC.
