I thinking to buy this CNC for PCB milling

[Chriss]

Hi!
I'm thinking to buy this cnc for milling my home proto pcb's :

Does somebody have some experience with this cnc for this purpose?

Is it worth the money?

Thank's

If your expectations are exceedingly low.....it would at least be a fun experiment.

This person can but with some modifications. Also, it isn't clear if the holes have to be drilled with a different tool.

I use the offers from online pcb manufacturers to make my pcb's, but I think to upgrade to a tool so I can more quickly do a prototype pcb.
The major reason for this thinking is because when I order pcb's online, most of case the min quantity is 4-5-10pcb.
If something is wrong because bad design, or something is changed for some reason in the design I can dump all the pcb's I ordered.

If I would have such of cnc like on my first post maybe it would work good enough even with few mod's to make quickly my prototype. After that I would send out my project to pro's to make high quality pcb's.

I think it is an arduino driven cnc which is opensource and it could be nice modified and tuned.
This could be also I nice experience maybe...

Can someone explain the price range please.

The price range is because of the head tool.
You can buy the cnc with simple drill header or with different laser modules.
