I have a cnc'd x2 and if guys say it is more rigid than a Taig, I say forget the Taig for those parts.
I could see pocketing out those parts on my x2 but finish would not be all that great and it would take a while because feeds need to be pretty slow.
I also have a x3 which I am in the process of converting.
It is MUCH more powerful and rigid than my x2. The accuracy from the factory seems great. But of course if you convert it to cnc then how accurate it will be is up to you.
IMO the x3 is a great benchtop mill to convert to cnc.
