I am looking to buy a CNC mill to make plastic injection molds (up to 12" x 12") and production machining of small machine parts. Budget is around 10k. I also want to make some small turned parts and thought adding a lathe head (like Sturges Turning Head™ Spindle) to the mill to do the few parts I need?
Does anyone have a recommendation on what I should buy? New / Used? Make/Model? What should I stay away from? Is a lathe head a good idea?
I consider Tormach, Industrial Hobbies, but I assume there are other good one out there.
Thanks in advance!
