Started my journey with Shapeoko 2.
I still have a lot of open thoughts but I've started with ordering the ACME upgrade and Z axis mount upgrade (even if I'm still not sure I'll go Nema 23 path ordering it later will make me pay international shipping again...) from Shapeoko store before they go out of stock again.
Open things:
1. Nema 17 or Nema 23?
2. which spindle should I get? (another thread open on this one)
500w brushed spindle? (~100$) vs 400W brushless spindle? (~230$)
3. TinyG or gShield? I like the extra motor driver on the TinyG but a little afraid of the first time configurations for Noob as I am.
I still have few weeks before I'll place my order, my last exam in the University is on July 3rd
