I dont scare too easily or I wouldnt own my own business. I found the page with the 10G machine and it may not be a router. I had done a general search for CNC router and found this: {PRTalpha 96 96\"x 48\"x 6\" 2.44m x 1.22m x 0.15m 102\" x 50\" x 6\" 2.59m x 1.27m x 0...

Wow! Thanks for all of the input guys. I dont know where I read 10G, (could'a been the second scotch). I curently have a small \"Norm Abrahms\" type shop with dedicated router w/jessem lift, 2-3 free routers, table saws for dado and rips, multiple jigs, band saw, joiner etc. I've been able...

As soon as I hit submit, I think of another question.

Does the router do the raised panels, styles and rails also or just the cabinet body and does Thermwood sell the band edger too?

ps sorry so many questions but I do love this stuff

By the way Dan,

I didnt even know Thermwood sold this stuff when I came here. I was just looking for presentation software for my current clients. As I research more, I find I know little about automation. What exactly would I be purchasing and needing to set up the router?

I thought about this Dan, but would I still be able to build the whole house while managing a small cabinet business to boot. I'm not trying to be a pessimist, I just dont want to bite off more than I can chew. The small router looks to run about $10g+ which isnt that big an expense for a new \"...

Hi Dana, Nice set up. first I'd ask if you do many shows? If so, perhaps a piece you could re-use as something else. Just add an additional tier over the top with low voltage or battery operated lighting to highlight your work. Or for simplicity, you could just run a 5/4 top bullnosed over crown ove...
