Find machines that fit

Answer a few questions about your budget, space and what you want to make. The finder lists the machines whose published figures meet every answer, cheapest first. It doesn't rank them; nobody has tested these machines for this site.

1. Budget, ready to cut

Compared with the machine-plus-router figure where one is known, otherwise the listed price.

2. Biggest piece you want to cut in one go

Matched against the published X × Y work area, either way round.

3. Space on your bench or floor

Optional. Machines that don't publish a footprint are listed separately rather than dropped.

4. Router or spindle in the box?
5. Enclosure
6. Software you already use

Matched against software the maker's page names. A machine whose page doesn't name your software may still work with it; check with the maker.
