eShapeoko
The eShapeoko is an affordable three-axis desktop CNC milling machine. It is a clone of Edward Ford's tremendously successful Shapeoko, with some changes. Much of the low-cost aspect we owe to Bart Dring, who invented MakerSlide, a simple and inexpensive linear bearing system that doubles as structural support.
eShapeoko is sold in kit form. For now, only a Mechanical Kit is available. In addition to that, you need three or four stepper motors (depending on whether you chose the dual-Y upgrade), and the electronics to drive the motors.
