Why even bother if it's not at least 48"x96"? --- End quote --- Because ones that big cost a fortune, take up a lot of space, and most of the projects in my head could be done with a desktop sized one. I'm going to be making pcbs, decorative doo dads, & small parts, not cabs and furniture. --- End quote --- Yeah... But they're practically a printing press for money... |

I saw that on Tested. It's easily the coolest and most impressive tool I've seen in ages. Makes way more sense than a large cnc. Maybe in 5 years or so when the cost comes down. *sigh* |
| Nephasth:
$1500 seems extremely reasonable for its capabilities. But ---fudgesicle--- preordering ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- anymore... |
| Howard_Casto:
I don't think it's bad at all, but unless I'm going into the furniture business or something I can't justify that much for a single tool. Tight budget and all of that. |
