I am thinking of buying a Carvewright, but I want to do more than just CNC wood (although that would be most of it).
I saw in another post where someone was having trouble while carving Corian plastic. I would like to use phenolic, and am also hoping to use the machine to drill Printed circuit boards (1mm - 1.5 mm holes). Assuming the board is mounted well, how precise and accurate is the machine - will I be able to drill holes that small to 1/16 inch depth? I don't think this would be strong enough to drill though fiberglass.
Also, using the v-tip to mill a printed circuit board (remove the plated copper over phenolic) - would that cause excess stress to the machine?
