>>Does it use the same of different makerslide than the SO2?

The same size MakerSlide profile but the new ones come in black.

>>Will Inventables still sell the SO2 size upgrade kit?

Yes. It's the second option on the configurator.

1. The are holes that the drag chain mounts screw in to. 2. The reason the spindle is 24V is because then you only need 1 power supply to run both the spindle and the stepper motors. We got appropriately sized wires and designed a PCB for the power supply to make the hookup easier. You can plug the ...

Bob over at I Like to Make Stuff recently bought a Shapeoko and did a video review. He posted it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iIge3fqiW8 I thought folks on the Forum might like to check it out.

I've been using foam core boards. You can set the depth per pass as thick as the board and do the entire job in one pass. They are cheap too.

If you could contact them so they are aware of the problem and can track it in their system and match it to your order they will reach out to our C...

When it steps up it sounds smooth. While doing an air job... When it goes up it's got that nice smooth zing zing zing zing When i...

I was running a job and the Z-Axis stopped responding. I am not able to drive in with Gcode Sender either. I did some inspection and one of the wires on the Z was loose. I got a screw driver and tightened it but still nothing.
