    Chinese 6060 CNC cast aluminum mill kit opinions

    Hello,

    I am looking to build a small CNC milling machine for hobby use and I found this very interesting kit on aliexpress.
    The price is very good and it seems to be a fairly straightforward way to get a fairly rigid gantry type mill.
    I plan on milling aluminum mostly, but won't rule out mild steel.

    Has anyone had any experience with these kits?

    Looks good for the price, you could always fill with epoxy sand to dampen any resonance
