How large a machine do you want to build?
How much money do you want to spend?
How heavy is the material you want to cut?
If you are wanting to cut guitar bodies, you will need a rather large, fast, and rigid machine. The type of machine I never recomend to first time builders. Smaller, slower machines are easier to build, cheaper, and great for learning (and you will learn a lot). I know no one want's to build two, but your chances for succuss are much higher if you start small. The "production" machine will turn out much better too, because you learn from your mistakes.
Maybe that's not what you want to hear, however it is true as a general rule of thumb.
Crawl, walk, then run.
