    they pretty ok last about the lenght of 2 jobs then chuck em...I have a buddy in Perth "Gary" who now buys bulk cutters from John he has a company called polyvisual
    here
    http://www.polyvisual.com.au/
    talk to him when he makes a new order you can get it in his bag and save on postage costs with him..very cool guy and has tons of cnc experience he has operated 5 axis machines and also can hand write g-code designed and built his own machines too..nice little factory he has there ...great spot to get acrylic...I used to raid his skip for really useful bits and pieces...still use some of his off cuts as spoil boards today..

    Hey Van, are you saying that Gary is "the man" to talk to about getting router bits?
    I am getting very tierd of paying out big bucks for bits that are only good for one body.....

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Great looking toy there Jarrod.

    Been eyeing off CNCs for a while but pretty hard to justify the expense at this point.

    Look forward to seeing some of the output from this machine.

    Cheers
