I am also heavily limited by local availability. The Omio will ship internationally but the Taig or other turnkey CNC benchtop Mills will cost me an arm and a leg just to ship them in.
For me the only option is to build a Sieg which thankfully has a local distributor. Everything else is all industrial level machines or eBay 6040 style routers.

If your pockets are very deep. Feeler machines are pretty cool. 5-axis.
Whenever I find that my pockets arenāt big enough I just pull out the olāshovel then start diggingā¦
So just an update to this thread I realized by review lots of videos on YouTube of manual machining and I realized Iāve used many of these machines. Thank you to those who advised me to take the manual learning route before spending money on a big machine I bought 3 machines so far to get some things accomplished. Table, ban, and pressā¦ For now!
I really hope this community likes what I come up with.
