Post by: modder420 on September 22, 2014, 02:49:58 PM: well i just got a pretty big check for a wrestling tour that i just finished and i am looking to buy a desktop CNC for my home shop anyone know of a good one to buy i saw a few on ebay for around 650-1200 im only looking to spend about 800-900 let me know.so far im leaning more towards a shapeoko2 they sell a kiit that u build yourself and that sounds more up my ally i figure if i build it myself then i will learn along the way to be able to maintenace the machine if need be.but if you guys know of a better soultion please tell me.
