    Not bad for a <$500 homemade CNC machine using a RotoZip as a spindle.

    Is it your first venture into building a machine?

    Did you buy a kit? Plans?

    No it's my 3rd machine... I used the experience from the first two to be able to design and build this one to decent tolerances. (I'm not recommending that you build from scratch cause that's a whole nuther thing to obesess with.) I'm not trying to make money with my machine. So being clever with design and materials and keeping it inexpensive was my priority. If I had a product to move I would have invested and bought at least a "ready for motors" all metal construction machine.
