Re: X-Carve as a budget CNC?
We'll post our experience here once we start some cuts (we're off until after Thanksgiving). Agree with the earlier post that assembly wasn't too bad - the assembly actually has been a great project/learning experience for the team. Thought I would share why we decided to go with the X-Carve vs. the Shapeoko 3 - the cut size the X-Carve could do in the 1000mm kit.
Goon Squad's Machine Specs:
1000mmx1000mm
ACME Lead Screw
NEMA 23 Stepper Motors
Dewalt 611 Router & Mount
Arduino/gShield Motion Controller Kit
Limit Switch Kit
Made our own wasteboard
