Question DIY CNC Kit Advice

Hi everyone,

Our team, 5136, is considering purchasing a DIY CNC Kit:

http://www.mydiycnc.com/complete_kit

We would get a more professional (and larger) CNC if we could, but funding is already tough enough in our rural community. Do any teams have any experience with DIY kits like the one in the link above? We are only looking to use it for small purposes, like cutting out small aluminum brackets and making gears.

We found out about the kit from a list derived from the cnczone forums: http://blog.ponoko.com/2011/07/15/pr...d-router-kits/
