I'm wanting to build a mini-mill, but I'm not sure where to start, as a gazillion others it seems. I was thinking of purchasing a kit, but I would like to build if at possible.

I was thinking that converting these plans to my own personal needs might work. First off, I don't want wood, some type of metal or plastic machine would be preferable. I'll be working with PCBs.

So maybe a listing of kits would be nice, as would helpful information on what needs to be purchased to convert the above mentioned machine to a mini-mill. Or maybe just a listing of parts needed for a mini-mill, though, instructions for where these parts go would be nice

Are there other considerations that a beginner should consider not listed above?

Hope this will be beneficial to me and others who arrive here with similar questions, so thank you in advance.

Edit: maybe this needs to be placed in the PCB Milling forum?
