    Build one. It would be good experience, plus you will know how to fix it when you need repairs/matenice. Can't you get a used machine locally? And your currency is strong right now so you should be able to import servo's and drivers at a good price. Just my opinion.

    Hi,

    Do you keep an eye on Ebay and does it have to be new?

    Are you saying you want to cut true 3D or will 2.5D be ok?

    EDIT: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA:IT&ih=017
