Justin,
We purchased a pro plus last year to basically do guitar parts with. It is a very capable machine but does have its downfalls. The biggest downfall to me is the amount of deflection this machine has in the middle of the x and y axis. This machine uses non supported linear shafts and when you are in the middle of the y and x travel the amount of deflection (Sagging) is unacceptable for us. We are looking at upgrading the shafts to a fully supported shaft on both y and x axis. Also if you call Nextwave Automation ( The company that manufactures the shark) they can upgrade the machine for you. Talk to Tim Owens. Hope this helps you out.
