    CNC kits in Aus?

    Hi all, I'm completely new to cnc, and am interested in building a medium to large sized machine for cutting plywood (for the purpose of making layered speaker boxes).

    However, reading through all the info on this site is killing my brain. So I'm just wondering, are there any cnc machine kits available in Aus?

    Also, are there any detailed step by step guides available that list parts available from Australian suppliers?

    Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks.

    I was recently looking around on the internet for just what you are asking and came across this site http://www.lowcostcncretrofits.com. They are based at Nerang on the Gold Coast, and prices seem pretty good. I am considering a servo system for my project.

    Another (Australian) forum site has a CNC group and they have produced this list of local suppliers.
    It's not up to date but a search of the forum will turn up more recent posts.

    do you want to buy different parts to assemble yourself?
    Or you one to buy a machine with software and everything is all done.
    in addition, how about the engraving size you need?
