We do like it a lot, I have no experience with the acorn units, looks like you have to spend for the hardware and software as well, also I don't like the look of their interface (just from what's on their website), but I am sure it's a solid product I know lots of people use them.

Ive had the acorn and while its an excellent product with support for pretty much anything you could want, if i did it again now, id seriously consider the masso over the acorn. just my 2 cents.

I like the looks of the Acorn but I am turned off by all the little upgrades that you have to purchase, having to pay for the silly axis upgrades on the Masso but getting all 3 versions of the software included seems better in the long run.

Yes! We are working on a modified (improved) design that we are going to sell as a kit with all the chassis components, screws, bearings, and covers, all pre-assembled, with options for the control and drive system if the buyer whats us to supply those as well. We were planning on doing a test run of 10 units at a reduced price to get feedback from the buyers before we go further. We should have this ready to go by the end of June 2023. Thanks for your interest!

@@DIVCNC look forward to seeing this?

The FM30 is something I would like to try, I have observed the same thing with spindles, either $500 or $3000. We have our VFD with the power supplies only, I wouldn't put it near the controller itself because I assume the high frequency noise can disrupt the more sensitive electronics.

Hi Lukas, Thanks! No we did not, we were careful while fabricating then dialed it in with shims. We are modifying the design so we can surface grind the fabricated assemblies going forward.

​@@DIVCNCmilling should be ok for the linear rails. You copy the precision of the mill milling the rail seat to your part. Worked well at my last job where we built machines for automated saw mills.

I would love to try one of those, maybe they'll send me one someday for a review haha

@@DIVCNC lol i cant fault you for that
