That's great Redline!

I'm really interested in those numbers from the pre-loaded ball screws.

With my Xylotex Control and 425oz steppers I got rapids around 120 ipm.

RE: your runaway backlash.

for mach 3 backlash it says to enter backlash in "units" so first time i set mine i entered "3" for 3 thou and the table ran away on me.
changed it to .003 and all is well.
just a thought...

Back at the ranch

Back to opinions concerning CNCFUSION.....

Bought an X3 kit from Mike there.
A+ for value, quality, and support.

Look at this picture of the original "Y' axis nut block.
You see those hand scribbed lines? That is the handy work of some (1 of millions) hungry Chinese person hand laying out for all the machine work. Notice how the dowel pin holes do not match the tapped hole locations?


The CNC fusion kit fit very good despite this +/-1/16" you find all over these mass produced machines.

So for those that complain about stuff not fitting, blah, blah blah... butch up and understand what you are dealing with..

I love my cheap chinese crap.

hail hail to CNCFUSION

I have a CNC fusion kit on my super X1-L - it is really fantastic

It was really straightforward to fit - but don't forget to get all your thrust bearings on or like me you'll be taking it apart again - oops!

My kit took a couple of weeks to arrive after my order - they seem to be made to order and I am in the UK, but it was worth the wait - they are lovely bits of metal

My only slight disappointment is that I lost about 30mm of X-travel - but I suppose a longer X-screw would fix that.
