Looking to purchase CNC shape cutting machine for under $10000 came across (1)Torchmate system by applied robotics (2)Shopbot alpha120-60 (3)Practical CNC 5x10
If any one has any of thease machines or imformation on their proformance or similar machines it would be appricated very much my main concern is reliability and parts availability

Jim for Hypertherm and also the guy from Thermal Dynamics is there too. Very helpful fellows.

I have a Practical cnc 5x10 machine on order right now. I was a little leary of the same things you are worried about.

Thanks for the reply
I read the specs on the Practical 5x10 it appears to be a good buy I like the idea of it being able to carry either a plasma or router.Will check out that web page thanks again
