You should specify what type of machining you want to do before asking what machine.
Personally I’d say go get a job at a shop for 6 month. Get paid to get educated, better than a costly mistake.
Budget of 40,000. CNC only? Is that all? $10,000 in tooling, 30,000 for machine. Get a haas tm IMO. New, warranty, not powerful enough to demolish itself. Runs single phase and can be moved with a pallet jack.
Tormach is ok, but the mx is way to much $$ imo. Who would ever buy it over a tm unless they wanna pack it pc by pc downstairs?
