Shielding is not required for HF, as long as you don't park your computor ontop of the cutter box, The computor is the weak link in the setup as long as it is a distance away you don't need fancy grounding and the other stuff they talk about , simple ferrite chokes on the cables will kill of any HF which runs down the wire to your computor(see radio shack for 4 dollar items) Did you see any fancy shielding or grounding on the video I posted no...what you saw was distance between the table and the cutter and the computor.

Stay away from nay sayers and people who tell bogeyman stories, most of them have no experience and only parrot what they have heard, usually from someone who knows nothing about it.
