    Depends what tha wants

    A new all singing and dancing 4 axis machine would probably set thi back 50 grand or more, a second hand 3 axis maybe as little as 10 grand

    Depends what you are intending to use it for

    Thanks but I'm looking for an idea of costs to have a small run of machined and drilled angle brackets done.
