I'm not at all sure that there is enough meat to the machine to be worth the CNC. :-)

And I note that the least expensive controller uses a linux-based system, running EMC (the *free* machine controller developed by the US NIST -- National Institute for Standards and Technology -- used to be the National Bureau of Standards.)

The EMC-based one is 8-axis as it comes, while the Windows based version costs at least double for the two-axis version, and has increased prices for each additional axis. :-)

I wonder whether Microsoft got money for the Windows XP in those systems? :-)

Enjoy, DoN.

A bit of Google searching says the "whatevers" are Won, and 1,006,000 of them are worth about $1059 US.
