The MR-1 is not a HaaS or anything like that but it looks like a good entry level CNC that can still machine harder metals like steel or titanium. It has a limited work envelope but it's relatively inexpensive compared to the big boys. This looks like the cheapest way to get decent precision and capabilities in a CNC mill. I was looking at maybe getting one of these so I thought I'd share.

I know there are definitely CNC mini-lathes that are affordable but I haven't seen a larger sized one so far. Let me know if you find one. Maybe the company that makes the mill I linked will come out with one. I know they are releasing a CNC press brake in the coming months so they seem to be expanding the types of machines they are making.
