This is my first post here, so if it's in the wrong area, i apologize.

I have been designing/building themed areas and props for 7 years for churches, businesses, and schools. During this time, the companies i have worked for have exclusively used demand products hotwire machines. Demand products uses foamshaper software to do the cutting. However, i am about to buy my own machine and go out on my own. I have been in touch with hotwire direct and am interested in their 8300 cnc. But i am just so familiar with the demand products, that it would be a seemless transition for me. If i buy something from demand, i am looking at the TW848. Or is there another machine from ANOTHER company that ANYONE would suggest? I am not looking for a router or 3D machine though.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or comments about your experiences with these companies that would help me make this decision.
thanks....:wave:
