I just started building myself and i see that just like 3d printer projects, if its comes down to making sourcing easier, i think that can be a really big impact on making this project go forward.
-Sourcing for 3D Printable parts is becoming easier and Easier
-Sourcing for GT2 Pulleys and Belts is becoming easier
-Alternative electronics like the smoothieboard are now available. Electronics that still don't use a parallel port.
As opposed to making a laser cutter that is more replicatable, if it was just easier to source, i think more people would build it
knowing they can do other CNC like hobbies in one particular build area.
3.X Design?
