Title: Model Build
I am a novice at cnc work, so when I knew I needed to buy a mill for what I wanted to do, I did a lot of research. I talked with many of the manufacturers and read reviews. After a lot of comparing I chose the DMC 3. It has been a good choice for me. It is the right size, at around 260 pounds my son and I can move it around. Yet it seems very sturdy and reliable. I am the first to admit that I am not an expert, but it seems to march right through the aluminum and steel. The modified Mach 3 software was pretty easy to learn and user friendly. When I made a mistake it was pretty intuitive to figure out. The machine is very robust for any user operational mistake. I made several calls and e-mails to Dr. Lee and the company always provides excellent supports and services.
I am making molds for a small plastic injection machine. This machine provides the precision I need and has worked out pretty well. I highly recommend it for the beginning and the professional users.
The picture is a model of a ruin World War 2 era building. The aluminum mold to make the model is built by DMC-III machine. DMC-III was able to detail out the bricks and even tiny shell holes. The back of the building is also complete, with plaster knocked off in pieces and wall studs showing through. The coin shows you a size comparison. I am now working on more stuff, and I will send more pics when I can. The picture can be posted, although my camera again seems to not focus on small items very well.
