Hi craigrobbo,I also ordered the router from Stepmores after reading your review and it's leaving China by sea soon.According to what I read online, there seems to be quite some work getting the router out of port. Did you use a customs broker? Can you describe what the customs clearance process is like?

Hi craig,

thank you for your review of your stepmores cnc. I´m in contact with eric about a 6040.
Are you still happy with your machine?
Do you have some pictures of the control box and did you had a look into it?
Maybe you can tell me if there is a label on the stepper motors?

Thank you for your help!
Greetings from Austria

Hi there Phillipp/

The control box I can get pictures for you later on they are of a high quality compared to others.

I'v looked inside but only brief!

The steppers are blank with no labels sorry.

Hi craig,

great! thank you
maybe you have also some pictures from inside the box? eric told me that they use leadshine M542 drivers, hopefully they are genuine :-)

thanks
philipp

Glad to hear on the surface the machine appears to be sound because I couldn`t wait for your update and put my money down yesterday

£880 plus £466 makes this about the same price as a 6040 with suppoted rails ?
