Thanks both.

I actually went to Amadeal today and looked at their stock. A bit dissapointed, not 100% what I was expecting but still managed to see a X5 in the flesh. Decent looking, a lot of money. If there is a recommended 'old' machine to mod, Im up for it as long as its mainly electronics and not making a lot of plates and brackets etc as I have nothing really to easily fabricate with.

Ill look at Bridgeport Interacts. Any other to consider?

Ideally Id use this to make something custom with a high speed spindle if needed.
