Hello All,

Coming from Richmond, VA - new to the site, but hoping to learn a bit about different advantages of cnc router/laser combos.

Looking to build one from scratch (or from a kit if affordable!) in my garage to accommodate large and small builds, and am trying to beat sticker price and learn along the way.

Anybody know of some good kits out there? If not, anybody have a good recommendation on where to start?

With CNC, I'd like to be able to mill/route aluminum even if it's only at depths of 0.050'' with a slow feed rate...

With a laser, I'd like to be able to engrave metal surfaces (with a coating of course), so it needs to be high power, but I'm thinking only between 40-60W.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
