I don't have a mini CNC but have a full size one (1200x1200) It was manufactured by a professional manufacturer.

All I would say would be to make sure it is strong with no flex

Most of the smaller/home built machines use emc2.

PM if you need to know anymore

Mate has a BIG work cnc machine that he has used to make me some parts with and he showed me it and a little bit of what he has made and the software side a bit. I was hooked. been looking into cnc for the last week. lol


Have you got any photos of your unit?

1164676 2010-12-26 10:18:00 Sorry, don't have any photos with me at the moment... not at home

However the machine is a Multicam from Australia (not to be confused with the US ones)

multicam.com.au

my machine is similar to the ones in the photos under "used machines"

My machine is in very good condition - I have just moved it to where I am living. It was totally refurbished in 1998 and has only been used for about 100 hours since so is in as new condition. (ive had it for a year but could not use it where it was) It is slightly old, along with the software, but I know the history of the machine and it is very well made.
