Before you even think of getting a 3D sintering machine, seriously consider getting a lathe and milling table. There's a reason these these two kinds of machines are the foundation of the manufacturing industry. Yeah, they're more expensive than a 3D printer, but if you shop for used, manual equipment they're not ludicrously more expensive. Something like an old Bridgeport mill or a Hardinge turret lathe can hold great tolerances and make a lot of useful stuff.
It came with a wood lathe - no milling machine that I saw though. I'll still need to get a metal lathe and milling machine. We have more than enough bandsaws and drillpresses though.
