Aussee still offer the non enclosed KX3 at a lot less than the enclosed one but that also has a different operating system. You would need a big suitcase to bring one of those back with you. Cost is certainly an issue as ready to run that will be capable of cutting all metals are not cheap so the hobby market will be small I don't know how the Techsoft software performs and whether you are tied to their CAD/CAM or if it will take generic G-code from the likes of Fusion
