I've been wanting to get a cnc router for a while now.. for reasons...

Cost of entry put me off... lead times, and impending tariff scares were a concern.. So Facebook Marketplace....

I found a fellow with a machine I was interested in.. for about a third of cost of entry.... He sold it with spare servos, a spare spindle, clamps and hold downs, and a bunch of bits (end mill, ball head cutters, flattening bits....) extra spoil board etc..

And... basically a spare extra machine.. (extrusions, lead screws, etc)

First piece I cranked out... relearning and dusting off my computer drafting skills... I learned AutoCad in the 90's
