We have used the Meteor machine for two years now. We use it for aluminum sheet and stock up to 1/2" as well as all kinds of plastic.

The machine comes assembled in the crate. They offer some options on the router that you provide yourself on the larger machines.
We purchased collets from http://www.precisebits.com/

Both companies are great to work with.


Let me know if you have any questions.
For your CNC router, which router/spindle are you using and did Probotix provide it or did you have to purchase it separately?
