Art Fennerty of Mach3 fame used to carry around with him a small 3 axis machine that might have been 8 inches square overall. I think the original device was used to work with fiberoptic cables but he fit a small spindle to it and used it for a 3 axis mill. It was really small and very precise. I remember he duplicated the face of a penny in some machining wax with it years ago. At the time he said he used it for software testing since he could test run it right next to his computer.
I would keep your eye on Ebay and see what you can find for a small 2 or 3 axis table. Daedal is a big name that is now owned by Parker.

Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense.
