the new member (tusong) to cnc zone asked a specific question to me personally, i answered it honestly from an actual experience with out any personal attack, this is a great forum for many a end user of cnc and has a decorum for use without threat or personal attacks,
not sure of what the mods feel about trolling and the baiting for an argument yet i will state some facts here.
tusongs questions specifically asked andout turnkey machines. and specifically not a kit of which one may have to wait 7,8,9,10 + months to begin to get commonly available parts. although i will say that while the parts you mention appear to be of good quality there are many a good kit company in the market whit reputable delivery times
the camaster cnc company is located in Cartersville GA, USA. where all the machines are built and shipped from. it has been in business quite a while with a large following of actual owners who use these machines and attend many cnc functions around the US, including the IWF, AWFS and vectric user groups meetings and conventions. the machine is well known and supported by decent, honest and hard working fellows whose reputations come from fabricating, operation of cnc machines for a lot of years with well known companys.
that the poster (cnc for fun) and i have never had any direct conversation about cnc machines in any form other than what appears to be some form of baiting by him for a generic argument. i read thru the post by this fellow and it appears that a cnc machine is not owned by him.
tusong, i welcome you to the zone, i have owned 6 cnc machines, three of which have been and are camasters, one is a digital cnc one is a older warthog and one was the 6090 chinese machine (predecessor to the icarve laguna machine) it will do the job. i am partial to the camaster i use them in business. i do moderat thier forum and host a vectric/cnc user group each year in support of many cnc machine owners of all types, recently we used the stinger to fabricate a large volume of solid surface tops at an amazon.com distrubtion facility here in my home state. it is an excellent machine that gets the job done with a few added benefits like good delivery, well supported end user community and no shortage of cnc machining features. i have said often
it may not be the biggest it may not be the best, yet it is not second best to any other
