The mdx15 is roughly in the range of the 3d printers that you're looking at. It might be a bit out of your budget, but it can do aluminum, and according to the manufacturer produces better tolerances/surface finish than a 3d printer, especially the ones that you can afford

I used this machine several years ago. Honestly, it's a joke. Your money is better spent elsewhere.
