Possibly, it's a 3 axis mini Mill...Me and a friend have designed it to be a class leader and well priced...basically gives you roughly 200x200x120 area to machine from ally, plastics, engrave, pcb making etc.....

Would be good to engrave reyland in to stuff you have made or buy in.

Possibly machine your own bells too if they fit in the footprint

If you want a demo of one I'll gladly bring one down and give a quick blast to show you the capabilities of the thing....Quite astounding really for the money..

I'm raising the funds for the machinery required to fully manufacture them in house, just buying in raw materials to maximise profit margin....after all I am a manufacturing engineer by trade so be a crime not to.

Estimate 100k turnover year one (probably more but using other peoples sales figures on crap machines as a benchmark), 6k investment from me and my mate for stock and machinery.... 100% profit margin possibly more when we can afford to buy bulk materials so ~50k profit year 1 . Already working on next size up machine and a package for schools and colleges with pre-writen coursework and activities so that should help sales.

Sorry to ramble..
