Re:I made a cell phone [video] by lynaghk on Sunday August 16, 2015 @06:50PM (#10070558)
I bought a ShopBot Desktop with a spindle, and it cost about $8,000. I decided that I wanted to focus on my phone project, rather than on trying to get a cheaper/homemade machine to work properly. (It's the same reason I bought an Apple laptop.)

If your budget is limited but you still want to get a sense of designing/making physical objects, buy a lot of Renshape foam, x-acto knife, and laser print designs to trace/cut.

Once you do that for a few hundred hours on your designs, shoot me an email and I'll be happy to mill them out for you = )
