I’ve always wanted to own my own CNC machine so I can start making some cool custom parts. Well, if you need a simple one that can be used as a laser cutter/engraver, here’s a CNC machine you can make from old printer parts. Very fascinating.
In this page I will show you how I have build a Router Laser CNC using some part from old printers, a Epson Stylus 800 and another Epson Stylus Color II, (you can use your old printer).
Are you kidding me? This guy built a $20 CNC scanner using a hand powertool, parts from an old scanner (for X and Y axis), and acrylic! This is indeed incredible for low-setup CNC machine you might want to build for small projects.

I expect you to have basic knowledge on power tools and hand tools and of course this instructable requires you to have a rotary tool such as a dremel. Even if you don’t have knowledge on power tools or hand tools I advise you to try this instructable
