So I know that there are other threads on this and I have read as much as I have been able to find but am hoping to get some help from people that have seen or experienced setting up a VF2SS on lower...

Awesome build! I would love to build something similar to this. How much has the project cost you if you don't mind my asking.

I currently have a small shop with a Sharp 2412 that has been a great and capable machine. Problem is that I'm not using it enough because I mostly work from home and mostly do prototype work.

Thank you for elaborating.

I own a very small downhill skateboarding business and I have been looking for a couple of cnc machines for the shop (a metal cnc and a wood router). I currently have all of our jobs done somewhere...

I have been looking at buying a cnc for some time now. I make skateboards and I think that it would be a wise investment for me and the Joes CNC seems like it fits my needs just right since I would...
