Glad it was helpful! You would be making a good choice. You will not find a company with better customer service as well in my opinion.

Getting ready to order the Shapeoko 5 as my first cnc (moving over from lasers). Your discussion about the challenges of laying out the control box, stop switch, etc. was very helpful in figuring out my own configuration. Thanks!

Agreed on the VFD spindle kit con. They say it comes from another location and it shows as it’s probably direct from the mfg. and thus Carbide isn’t clued into this process of receipt of tool by us and then left in the dark with no instructions. Seems like growing pains. Good on you for point this out. Also people doing the same on the forum.

Yeah. I am at the point where I need a bigger one. They told me they would be coming out with a larger mount soon.

My 5 Pro came last week with a bound folder instruction manual. So it looks like they took that feedback seriously.

Awesome. They do really listen to the community.

Hi! Did you compare this with a Onefinity Journeyman Pro? I’m considering buying either that or this one that you reviewed, which was very helpful. Any insights from you or another viewer?

I know this is a few months out but I am needing to upgrade from my current cnc. Do you still like your 5? I am vested in Vectric have tried that software with it? Thank you!

Yes I still have mine and I actually use the Vcarve Pro with it as well as carbide create. And it works great. I use carbide motion at the CNC for the controlling software and it integrates very well

Great thank you. Glad to hear it pairs well with Vectric. Have a great day!

I have a quick question. Is VFD still 220 volt?

@stlwoodworking 6 ай бұрын

110. And well worth the upgrade

That's great! I don't need to add a 220v outlet in my garage. Thank you.@@stlwoodworking
