So my open project with my little TICK hexarotor is hanging on because I can not get the frame done for the last 10 weeks. Friends, helpers and guys around me are not able to get the few holes drilled inside to get a first full prototype. So I decided today to buy my second milling machine to get all the stuff done at home. I am looking around for some weeks for a perfect machine doing all I want to do but there are only old worn out machines or even better ones for a big money. Even the guys who I asked in the net who are selling second hand mechanics are so expensive that I decided to go for a chinese milling machine called here „KÄSEFRÄSE“.

This morning I woke up and had a message of a guy/girl from ebay who is selling these machines. I got an offer for getting a big one 6040 machine with a 3-axis controller for around 1370€. So I accepted this and waiting now for the package to arrive.

I will go on with a report about this underdog CNC and we will see how it will do the job.
