    Default newbie , quick question

    Hi all, i am very virgin to cnc and was thinking of buying a 4' x 8' commercial machine. I have also thought of building. Does anyone know anythng about "Cad Cut CnC" ? It's plans for a 4x8 table.
    Also, I will mostly be using this table for cutting 2.5d signs- wood, foam, sintra. But I would also like to get into a little 3d work. Will a machine like this do that kind of work and does that depend on the software.
    Thanks for listening

    in my opinion building is the way to go... but if you have the money, then i guess buying one will work... it really depends on what you have to work with, if your a good craftsperson, have a place to work, and a good understanding of things mechanical, then building is an excelent option... if you have $$ but not a lot of time, tools, or abilities, the buying a machine may be the route to go...
