What is the warranty on the Shapeoko 4 CNC Router - XXL - Hybrid Table - With Makita Router? Is 220V the standard for all of your CNC's.?
What are the dimensions of the T-slots(opening width, depth, width)? Also, is there a performance difference other than the RPMs between the Carbide Compact Router & the Makita Router? Thanks
is there training available?
What software packages are compatible with the Shapeoko XL
How long does it take for assembly and about how long would it take to make an address sign routering only five 3" numbers, like simple hand routering? Thanks
Is there a different router mount for this unit? I've just bought the XXL with Dewalt-dwp611-variable-speed-router and the mount for the router is too small. The grub screw won't open the mount far enough to accept the spindle.
I live in northeast Ohio. My garage is not heated, will being in cold affect/ damage the 4 xxl?
At full load what does this thing pull wattage wise all together running the machine and the router?
What PC requirements are there to run the: -Carbide Motion control software -Carbide Create 2D CAD/CAM software
What is the footprint of the XXL? Your web page lists 50x41x19 inches. is it 50x41 inches footprint and it needs 19" of overhead clearance? I am building a base table and need to know what size rectangle to make.
Are you have financing available for XXL ?
The standard model will work fine for me...Do you have a UK outlet? or do you ship to UK? I ask because I have to factor customs (blah blah) in to the mix.
When are you getting these back in stock?
I have never used a CNC before. Is it fairly user friendly? Is there a big learning curve?
I’ve been REALLY considering buying this machine. I need it to cut a piece that is 42”. Is that possible? Or do I need a bigger machine?
Can I buy the machine assembled?
When will the 3xxl be available to order
I noticed that none of your cnc engravers use a leadscrew to move either of the 3 axis. How reliable and what would be life expectancy of the drive belts you use.
When are you shipping the XXL with the Z Plus axis?
I would like a complete list of everything I will need to get started, including collets ,bits, touch block, PC etc.
