Re: CNC Mill or Router?

Thank you all so much for all of the input that you have given. I spoke with the rest of the team members today and we decided that we are definitely going purchase a manual mill with a dro. We have a sponsor that lets us use their laser cuter, so we were originally leaning in this direction anyways.

We do not really see a need for a lathe at this point. To my knowledge, we have never designed a part on a robot that justified the use of a lathe, and we would rather spend the money to buy another control system.
