Pros & Cons
Pros
Upgraded from a makita trim router. It seems a bit more rigid than the makita, so my finishes improved slightly, but not as much as i was hoping. They aren't big enough for the * ends i have for 12 gage but can accept the ones he has for 14 gage wires... Read More
Using the arduino uno grbl package along with a second arduino uno to fine tune the grbl rpms to the vfd. Vfd displays the frequency, just multiply by 60 to get rpm, so 100hz is 6000rpm. V fd works great so far, but my main complaint is the location o... Read More
The motor is quiet and there’s no vibration or trouble. Water cooling seems to work well enough to keep the motor barely over ambient temperatures. The only thing i think i'll add is a flow meter to the coolant pipe as when there are no air bubbles yo... Read More
Machine is incredibly accurate aside from some gantry flexing. Spindle mount is stout! But if you know someone with nimble hands, it's not too bad.

Packaging/appearance
It does not come with a power cord, i picked up a 16 gauge extension cord at home depot and cut the end without the prongs off ... Read More
Competitiveness
I ordered 16awg 4 conductor wire to go with this off amazon.
This is a very good value for the money, imho.
The motor is a 110v motor, not a 220v like in the seller's pictures, and the cable attachment method was different than in the pictures.
I tested the voltage of all my hardware on one 120v 20amp circuit, and i was only pulling about 4 amps at 24000 rpm (not under ... Read More
