RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Clients for large router ?

Hello Filipe

Sounds like quite a large router! If you have a web page
it would be great if you could put up some pictures.

Whether it is hobby work or otherwise a few things come to mind:

1) Musical instruments

2) 3-d wooden (or other material) signs

3) Model aircraft

4) Sporting gear

You can take a look at my website (links below) to see some
examples.

If your hobby starts turning into a money making proposition
you are quite welcome to join the jobshophomeshop Yahoo group
which deals specifically with small shops trying to make a profit.

Hello. I'm finishing building my router with a useful area of 3000mm x
2000mm x 300mm (150" x 100" x 15"). I started it for fun, but now that
I'm ending it, the cost is high. The machine is about 250Kg, very
solid. My question is that I don't know what market I should aim for
to have some return of investment.

Some of you, for sure, use routers to work, not only as hobby. What
industry are your main clients ?

I live in Portugal, and in my area I think that only 2 routers are
working, only for 2D cuts (plate cuts), both connected to the sign
industry.
