About 50% of makers have a 3D printer... a CNC for carbon fibre routing... I'm guessing 1%.

Very slick build for the price point though. 1/10th the price of something like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwdd2Bv94iw

Sure, but you don’t personally need the CNC. All you need is to know somebody who is in that 1%. Or have access to a makerspace with that CNC.
