Sorry taking so long to get back .thanks for all the input from everyone
I am actually going to go with a CNC
A genmitsu 4040 pro looks like it will do more of what I hope to do .....with a steep learning curve of course
They look to be best for a reasonable price point from I have read spindle not belt drive
I can also add a Lazer to the unit later if I want
First have to reorganise the garage to be able to fit it in
I figure will be a couple months
