Hi I am new here and seriously considering a CNC Router for hobby use, and possibly use to make money in the future. The main thing I like make are guitar amps. I make the amp faceplates from laserable plastic. I have have been paying for them or going to the local colleges that have public access to the Fab Labs with laser engravers. I think a CNC router would also be nice to cut out the top part of the aluminum chassis for the tube sockets and screws instead of doing it by drill press. I may also get fancy with finished wood cabinets instead of typical vinyl/tolex covered. It would also be nice to cut out the pieces of the wood cabs with the CNC. I am thinking of a CNC Shark or Shopbot Buddy. Would a CNC router do a nice job of engraving on the rowmark plastic? Are the CNC Sharks reliable machines? The Shopbot Buddy may be a little too expensive so I needs some input.
