For this machine, I'd be inclined to cut the list off after the
'custom cabinet shop' entry; and warn that even a small cabinet shop
could make good use of a 48x96 machine - and that if the 48x96 machine
were in place, it would probably suffice.

That's true of the hobbiest market too, but not many hobbiests
can/will spend for the larger machine.

This machine should be just the ticket for learning and/or for small,
intricate work requiring greater precision/repeatability than is
otherwise reasonable.
