Equiping a new workshop

Hi,

I know it has been asked before but machines change so I thought it would be ok to ask again.

I have been saving up for a Hammer C3 and will be ready in time for the Oct show. But would I be better off going for separates?

If so, what are your thoughts? I am a hobbiest, but want a machine /s that will not only last but are accurate and do not require an engineering degree to keep them that way. I have a 20’ x 12’ workroom, just being built.

Thanks for any advice given

if I am better off with seperates, which do you reconmend for someone in the UK?

Very keen on a stopsaw if I go this route
