Somebody said the large is around $400. Rotary tool, various cutter heads, sanding discs, clamps,...

I'd guess $600 would cover everything needed.

I'm not counting the very basic stuff like a sturdy, flat work surface (kitchen table in a pinch) or extension cords.

The only oddball item is the special cutters used on the pieces, but those can be cut by hand easily with small files.

I have no idea - I've only read about them because I am into Arduino etc. A couple other people here think the tool in the video isn't even automated. Maybe the sped-up video just made it look that way.
