About 30 years ago, I started from the bottom, cutting MDF with a hack saw blade, keyhole saw (whatever i could find, then a cheap black and decker jigsaw with a bent blade. Then got a router years later and believe it or not, then came a table saw. Right about that same time i got a panel saw too. I always wanted one just like at Home Depot because of those "deadly accurate" cuts it had.
Been built a lot of boxes and a lot of "things" over the years with whatever i had at the time. Well this time i upgraded again. I have been thinking of a CNC machine for cutting MDF for years! I finally got the flame lit under my ass when Brian aka Audiofanaticz and i started talking about it last night. He tossed me a few links and i was really liking the prices. The unit i chose is about $15,600. I am putting a fat down payment down (even though i qualified for NO down payment) and i will pay the 4 year loan off probably in a year or so. I like to do this (get loans and pay them off fast) so i can get the kickass credit score out of the deal. Damn near 800 right now
I am hoping it will arrive about 2 weeks from tomorrow after i finalize the paperwork on it.
Now you guys KNOW i will post pics when it arrives! Now, to find a spot to put it and get my electrician on the job.
Here is a link to the finer details.
