Looking through what I had bookmarked on Ebay for this work, I came across the item that started it all off. An A8 printer for £86. I did want to go for a mill rather than a 3d printer, mainly because eventually I felt that I could use a mill more. But considering I'm looking at that sort of money as a 'test' for the mill, I am now wondering whether my 'test' should be that printer. At least I'll be able to figure out the CAD side of things, get familiar with the layered approach, etc.
Edit: OK, this is on pause for now, I bought the 3d printer... I might come back to this in the future, possibly with some rants and complaints about how I should have gone straight for the CNC mill and not bothered with additive manufacturing...
