Which one have you ordered?

Be prepared for a little flak. While these kits are a quick way to get started and will do an ok job if you don't ask too much of them, you'll soon find their limitations.

As several of our members here will delight in telling you, with a little more effort and not much more money you could build a much better machine from scratch.

Thanks Irving2008

Ive bought the new PRO 9648 Kit But supplying the extrusion and electronics

As in my other post. The flak is this due to the risers on the side of the gantry or the linear system. Is it something i could upgrade in the future.

Many thanks Adam
