Hi

im just looking to buy my first cnc router..for home hobby use

my budget is about 1500$ max link below shows what i have been looking at......its parallel not usb..

any and all input would be appreciated so i can make best decision for my needs and budget ..the controllers on these 6040 suck from what ive heard

i would like the ability to do do aluminum if needed....but mostly would be plastic and wood....this model seems to be able to do aluminum




Also ive looked at Xcarve but just dont like the "wood shop" flimsy look to it...its bed is particle board

oh and one more thing.....i want to buy something that imdont have to modify or redesign to make work
