Makes nothing but sense as 3 bits almost always enough to do a job.
MasterCam makes one with 2 heads, and that's nice because you don't
need a wide gantry that extends too far beyond the sides of the table.

Much faster than a tool changer and cheaper too. Toolchangers are
expensive if you want a reliable one. Then along with the bit you buy
you need a holder for the bit and you also need to run air to the
head. Dustcollection on a 3 head machine is a bit of a bother, but for
the most part that seems to be solved.

FIFTY SIX YEARS I've been waiting to say these words and actually mean
them: "Hey, cute baby!"

Wouldn't you know it'd be one of the Festerers?
So, is the magazine still an "arts and crafts" thing, or are people
getting serious with it? Who has a subscription and can share a copy
of the digital version? (They say on the site that it's OK.)

Sawdust burps on your shoulder are much nicer smelling and easier
cleaning than baby vomit, I'm sure.

Desk top CNC can be really useful, and fun. I've been playing with a Taig
CNC mill for about two years now, and I am in the process of accumulating
parts to make a slightly bigger mill type machine, and a much bigger CNC
router.
I made awards, and done engraving mostly, but close fitting one piece carved
boxes and some custom parts in aluminum have also made the grade along with
a number of plate / template type parts.
My biggest problem is keeping track of all the G-Code files I've written or
created and keeping the good ones straight from the experimental ones. No
point in rewriting some of them each time. Just pull up my file folder and
select.

I think you'd probably class it as still in the arts and crafts thing -
