While waiting on the unit to arrive I did some research and found that there are several different versions on the market labeled CNC xxxx. The 3018 is called upgraded because the new mounting for the X and Y rods and lead screws. Old Version On the previous version these had to be mounted and manually aligned which from what I read can be a pain. Building Genmitsu CNC 3018-PRO CNC Router The build went very well. The 3018 user manual was mostly pictures but they called out anything that might be questionable. I had been talking about the CNCengraver with my kids and they were excited to help build one evening after school. It took us about 1.5 hours to build and I was only able to keep their attention for about half the time. We put it together on our carport on a rug my back wishes it was at the workbench. I am a little above average height and my workbench is at my standing height in my shop so opted for the floor. ![]() I bet I could easily put it together by myself in about an hour under better circumstances. I did record the build but found it not very interesting and useful to share. One thing to note. I did find a ball bearing in the box but cant confirm it was from this kit. ![]() Mini Cnc Router 3018 Drivers And SomeIt has a digital copy of the instructions as well as some windows software and drivers and some gcode for testing. I connected the printer to my PC I didnt have to use the provided driversthen loaded the example gcode. Before starting I positioned the bit at the bottom left hand corner with the tip barely touching. Then hit run. I etched the Sainsmart logo on a piece of acrylic with very little effort. My first pass wasnt perfect, the s and a only partially showed. While using the CNC router, I realized if that happens again I can just go down to 0 height then go 0.1mm lower and zero only the Z and start again if I have only partially etched something. I am doing just simple etches right now to get a feel for speeds and feeds. I think I have been very conservative. Windows and USB Click to Enlarge I really dont think that a Windows machine is best suited to send gcode.
