cool think this poll.
You are right with "absolute minimum cheap" etc.
but i think the following:

I don't have an urgent need for a pcb cnc drill. I can continue to do
manual drilling for now.
And i don't want to spend the time building a obvoiusly too weak mill for
my later needs (although it might be a good exercise).
There may be a bigger/stronger revision, but i really want to start with
rev. 2 as i don't need rev 1 (which i consider a weak drill only machine).

If i look at my wallet, well, ok, but isn't it better to save the money for
the rev. 1
and put it into rev. 2?
