CNC Mill
We are aiming to raise £2000 to purchase a second-hand Denford VMC 1300 Pro milling machine. These retail for £17k new. Some info is here:

This is the base model with no auto-tool changers or cooling system.
Some negatives to this unit:
Proprietary Windows Only software (this could be changed, but probably only by changing the whole control system).
Pledge Rewards
None at the moment. Any ideas?
