What spec's are your pc to run the router, I,ve just added up the costs of finishing my machine using c5 ballscrews and hiwin linear rails and a can't see much change from £3000. Can you give us a rough idea of your total costs?

    This is awesome! Question, though: what did you use to program the mill? Did you do it with old-school G-Code, or did you use a CAD/CAM package, such as Solidworks and MasterCAM to generate the toolpaths? Or none of the above?
