I recently bought a cheap CNC milling/engraving/laser cutting machine - a CNC 3018 Pro as it was advertised locally for less than half the cost of new and hadn't been used for an hour as the owner just couldn't get on with it, hence the sale, much as this one...

I'd like to use it for milling PCB's and maybe for milling panel cutouts and possibly engraving them.
First test was to make some Manhattan Style solder pads and after some rapid learning of software, the first panel came out quite well.
Cutter is a 1mm end mill and 3 passes at 0.4mm cut depth to get to 1.2mm deep cut makes it easy to score through with a sharp craft kinfe/Stanley knife to get the bits required.
