That thing's not going to work too well, or for very long. While 3D printers can be constructed of light materials and be forgiving of flimsiness, CNC mills and routers cannot, and are not. Cut quality on a machine like that will be horrible. And the use of a Dremel tool as a spindle must be a joke - it wasn't designed to run continuously for hours at a stretch, which is often required for 3D milling operations.

I understand what you are saying! But with that said... There are a lot of times where a 30 second Dremel operation on what I'm printing could drastically simplify the part and print. It sure would be nice to have some 'extra' capability within the command of the printer!
