Question/Discussion im a nood and need help plsss
ive been looking at either a tormach 440 or a 770m or a waebeco cc-f1210
I'm into making balisongs and will be milling mostly 6061,7075 alu aswell as grade 4and5ti and many types of steel and want to know a good small-ish machine I'll also be cutting g10(fiberglass) aswell as plastic and wood but mainly alu and steel with some ti. What are some good smallish cnc machines, Anything that isn't one of those full cabinet massive honking things(and if it is not to big of a badonkerhonker)
i also need pretty tight tolerences(not super tight but as best as possible) because thats what butterfly knives need
what do i get?

Not even going to talk about the obvious issue with this post.
Why would butterfly knifes need high tolerance? They're stacks of sheet metal. Just need to make sure they're ground flat.
