I liked the idea of starting with a simpler machine. I found a local distribuitor. I thought about using a CAD program because I didn't want to spend lots of money to test things which might, later on, not fit together.
By the way, the distribuitor has all the things peu bought from the USA.. let's see whether they're cheaper (I hate websites which don't list prices!!!

)
By "reasonably equipped shop", you mean with reasonable equipment (and what would that be), experienced people or both :P?
Edit: I just thought... peu's first router had the accuracy I want. Is it possible for me to achieve it too?
