I stopped by Home Depot and spent $21 on misc. parts I needed for the CNC machine. In theory, everything else I need for this project can be purchased at Home Depot.
In particular, I wanted to pick up the MDF board that'll be the base of the CNC table. At my Home Depot, they sell 3/4" MDF in 2'x4' sheets, and for $10, that's not too bad.
While there, I also picked up the steel 1/2" conduit for the rails, the threaded rod that the motors will spin, and various nuts and bolts.
There's not really enough parts purchased yet to take any neat pictures, but I'll try to get stuff cut up so there's at least something to look at.
($295)
