I disagree. We can use, and humans have done this for millennia(and i also say its the only way to go), more primitive tools to make more refined ones.. evolution...
Btw, i just watched a lecture at TED, talking exactly about this.. how people tend NOT to think in technology(or anything else for that matter) in evolutionary terms.

In this case, we can use it to make a better cnc ^_^

yet, its an amazing project =]

And these will cost much more than $100. I wouldn't get overly excited at a

cnc machine made of wood/MDF. It has the same deficiencies as RepRap. Maybe 
not as much though.
