I'm thinking seriously about getting a CNC.  Been browsing on Ebay.  Mostly these China made 3020 cnc machines are popping up, and they all seem to  be relatively well priced.  Just thought I'd get some opinions from members on any actual experience on these.  Also any recommendations on getting a hobby CNC machine in general would be greatly appreciated.  I'm planning on using the machine to make hub plates, motor mounts, etc.  I'd probably be milling aluminium and/or carbon fibre.

LIST OF EQUIPMENT UNDER CONSIDERATION:

Motors/Controllers:

1. cadcamcadcam.com (servo motors and controller)
2. 3-axis Stepper Motor System based on DQ542MA, on Ebay
3. 6-axis Stepper Motor System based on DQ542MA, on Ebay
4. DC1 Servo Motor Controller, from Makerbot
5. Servo Motor Encoder
