Doh!
good point,
it can basically cut and engrave MDF, Ply, Acrylic and Solid woods although I can only do 2d stuff at the moment until I can afford 3d software

Looks good, but if you are working in acrylic it'd be a lot quicker and cleaner to get it laser cut
I have access to a laser cutter if you need something - I work in 2D Design but other formats can be dealt with.

Re: Cnc Machine
Good timing!!
Been looking at making a repro of LR wolf front grill. Want one just big enough to fill the lower aperture. Was thinking Ali powder coated black.
Can you do this sort of thing?
