Hi all
Just wanted to intreduce myself. I want to build a CNC machine and a little birdie told me this is the best place to get advise and support. I must warn you though I will need a lot of help, but from what I have seen so far it looks like I am in good hands.

Hi All
Been cutting with my machine from august last year, and calculated that I saved an average of R9000.00 cutting charges per month so this machine paid for it self plus interest.

Thank you Hennie for all your help.
