That's quite an idea!
Here's what I have in mind currently. Going with all the info you guys gave me (thanks so much for all the info btw, you guys are absolutely amazing ) and since I will use a laser cutter primarily for PCB etching and other small stuff, I figured I would be better off with a small, low power laser cutter, such as this:

(good lord that link is massive)
I would also add in a creality cr-10 printer and maybe an E3D hotend (I don't mind fiddling about and modifying stuff, tends to yeild intresting results!). Is the creality a good choice or should I go for a MK2S?
It would be absolutely amazing if you could post a list up here! Thanks!
I hugely appreciate all you guys' contribution. You guys rock!
If you want to etch your own PCB's, that awesome, but keep in mind that if that's what you want your CNC for you may end up saving money ordering the boards online. If you are geeking out and just want to try it for yourself, mad respect, I do the same kinds of things. But for my opinion as a computer engineer, if you want a cost-effective way to get PCB's (unless you are going to spin a TON of boards), ordering them online will save you time and money. Yeah, the lead times aren't as quick, but they do all the work for you!
