JASON: Please excuse my comment here, BUT... What you are looking at is nothing less than a TOY. Sorry to be so blunt, but "IF" you are serious about getting into CNC work / play, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY on a toy that will waste your money, and more importantly your TIME. If you might have a school or vocational school near you, I would suggest taking a course or two about the CNC machines, and then talk with people {on here} or elsewhere about the BASICS. That way you can get "hands on" experience of what this is all about. THEN: You can make an educated decision on what level and cost machine would be best for you to consider. You "might" want to look at the AltMill. https://sienci.com/altmill/ I have just got mine. They are manufactured in Canada, and have a VIBRANT young group of dedicated designers and engineers behind their product. For a Semi Professional level of machine available for under $4000. delivered to you, it is an AMAZING value. I have ZERO connection with the company, other than being a VERY HAPPY owner of this machine. Do your research, and I think you will find an AMAZING machine at a very fair and more than competitive price. Also look at https://idcwoodcraft.com/ he has some great reviews you can check out on his site. Hope this is helpful. Regards, RB
