    Looking For Some Advise on a Machine

    Looking For Some Advise on a Machine.

    I have a small Metal/Wood shop in brooklyn and I'm looking to get a small CNC milling machine. Here is what I need

    • X Axis at least 16.5" (bare minimum)
      Y Axis at least 3.25" (bare minimum)
      Will be milling steel and some hole drilling in wood
      Want to be able to attach a engraving tool or attachment to it
      A 4 axis machine would be nice
      Machine must be benchtop mountable(limited floorspace)


    I was looking at some machines TownLabs makes but turns out the X Axis is too short.
    Too bad because the price was right.
    So now I'm looking at the CNC Masters Baron or the CNC Masters Jr..
    These are a couple thousand above what I was hoping to spend but I could probably do it.
    So what I really was looking for is any ideas of other machines I should look at, Lower price?, Same price better machine? I attached a PDF of the largest part I need to make.

    Any feedback is seriously appreciated.

    May be too heavy for your bench. But Perhaps you should conside it.
