Really neat project!

Maybe I missed it, but is there a general cost estimate anywhere? I saw the BoM, and assume most the cost is in the router and stepper motors, but is this like ~$500?

Thanks! I think it spent around $1100 in total, but then I paid for fast shipment and ordered quite a lot of parts that I ended up not using. You can probably build it for $600-$1500, depending on where you source the parts, what quality you buy, speed of delivery etc.
