    Also ordered UC300ETH-5LPT + UCBB breakout board + UCCNC. Found deal for 270EUR including VAT and shipping.

    Thank you.
    You will have a very nice setup with that selection of components.

    Shipping is sky-high at the moment and has been since Covid started, We ship by the sea in large Qty's to save money but this has also gone up dramatically compared to before Covid. A Container that used to cost approx $2000 increased to $10,000 within weeks of Covid starting and at its height increased 600%. With lead times going from 8 weeks to 14 weeks and higher. This was then compounded by some idiot crashing a ship into the Panama Canal, the after-effects of which we are still seeing today because ships are not going through the Canal due to massively increased insurance cost's so they are taking the long way around and adding 6-7 more weeks to delivery times.

    Hence why there is a shortage of many things in the UK and Europe.
    -use common sense, if you lack it, there is no software to help that.

    Hello!
    Just to post update.
    Machine is almost done, it took me a while, almost a year to assemble everything.
    Here is a short vid.
    Here is vid of first cut.


    There are still some things left to do (waiting for some parts to finish ATC, then will attach 100mm hose for chip excraction).

    Machine is solid and precise, and I am really happy with it.
    There is only one slight issue: i do have some wobble on screw when nut is rotating. Is that normal?
    I did try to flush nut with rotating sleeve as much as I could, but I still get some, maybe 2mm in middle portion of screw.
    Any suggestions about that?

    Thanks
