Re: To CNC? Or not to CNC?

Also, check out:

They have brand new mills for under 5k, also new lathes under 4k.

The new lathe that we just got is:

They have a wide array of tooling, indicators, and other useful tools for a good price, if you want new.

They have a lot of different machines, Check out smithy in particular, while I would recommend a separate mill, and a separate lathe, they have 3-in-one machines that are a combination mill-drill-lathe. For the money, these things are great, they don’t take up much space, and they work well. Also, for the team on a budget, you save a lot of money but only buying one machine compared with 3. And the prices will shock you. (Like 240 3 phase).
