    Oh Yes!

    There are many free and paid alike, maybe even more than for 3D Printers.

    Hello again;;

    I discovered today that the longer Stepper motor cables I purchased from California.
    Are in fact being shipped from mainland china, so it will be quite some time before I see the parts if ever.

    How is it that E-Bay continues allow this to happen, as many times as we have all complained this should have stop.

    May have to buy spares from somewhere else to be able to finish the MPCNC build.

    well you could do what I do and just make your own.
    I use these to make cables of different lengths.

    I will soon be buying machines, the laser does not always work well according to different reviews. What about them? I think they are more reliable, but I can't say for sure because I don't have enough experience with them.

    It is going to depend entirely on what you plan to do with the cnc. Basically the most you can get out of any hobby cnc is some mild work on aluminium (This is at the extreme end and you kind of have to have a very good understanding of machining to get something like that to do anything that is hard.)If your serious about machining metals you have to spend the cash and or understand the processes behind it to DIY it.If it is just for soft materials it again will require some understanding to begin with. As you learn more you will break and or muck up less things.
