Hi Everyone
I'm new to this site, been following it for a while though.
I'm based in Moorabin, Melbourne.
I'm in the process of designing and building my first desktop CNC wood router approx 500mm x 500mm working area.
I have linear bearings, shafts and ballscrews for the x axis and y axis which i've bought from ebay. However I have no workshop or tools my own.
I was wondering if anyone in the Melbourne area would be interested in machining some of my machine parts from aluminium or know of any affordable local machine shops.
Or if anyone knows of any short college courses (evening or weekends) that allow you to make use of their equipment and expertise for personal projects.
I am also looking into using www.emachineshop.com in the U.S, has anyone here used this service and if so what is the quality like and what are their prices like compared to local machine shops in Australia.
Looking forward to your responses
