What do you want to do with it? You might want to ask in the Australian section here, as well.
Hi,
I am new to in this area and I am trying to find a reasonably cheap entry into CNC routers for wood cutting. I found a small company in the US called Super Tech that makes small wood routers for pretty good prices (I think). I know many people here are operating with ebay, but because I do not really have much experience I am not sure what to look for.
Anybody here with experience with Super Tech machines, or some advice on how to get started?
Cheers,
helix

Last time I looked they had a toll free number, give them a call and ask lots of questions. Last time I talked to them the only machine they were producing and selling was the small "mini-robo" which may be the one you were interested in. Sorry, but I I have no personal experience other than that with the machines.

Thanks for your replies, guys!
Yepp, I was thinking I might ask the other Aussies around. But I might just give these guys at Super Tech a call first and see if they actually make the machine I was interested in (actually that was the servo-driven Mini-Robo). I doubt, though, that I can call a toll-free number from overseas ... lucky international calls are so cheap these days.
As for what I want to do with it, there are two types on things I thought might be good for getting some experience, one is wooden toys, like animals with a bit of free-form, and the other are modern style wooden bowls (ones you can't turn on a lathe) and other decorative bits people put around the house.
I guess my background is computing and doing woodworking as a hobby, and I want to try to combine the two with this ...
