Thanks for the kind words. I certainly hope it performs well enough.
It is my first CNC, and hoping to use it to mill foam molds and plugs for flying RC things. I'll be hand finishing the foam so that removes the need for it to be 100% accurate (certainly less pragmatic to chase down the Nth degree of accuracy). Have an idea for a line of GRP products for RC that would be helped greatly by being able to make variations quickly in rhino to have them milled out and turned into a mold more quickly... so this machine is purposed for that along with milling out foam planes... which, for all intents and purposes can survive a full millimeter either way (but I do hope it's more accurate than that

).
