If I am building my own frame, would you recommend waiting until the order ships before starting work on the frame and sled? Or am I safe to move forward based on the frame build instructions? + -

You’re absolutely safe to get started. We recommend this as it makes the kit more “plug and play” once it arrives.

What tools do I need to assemble my kit? + -

For the wooden frame build, at minimum you’ll need a screwdriver, saw, pliers, and a C clamp. Having access to power tools like a drill and power saw definitely make the job easier, but aren’t required.

How do you adjust the router depth in Ground Control? + -

1: On the main screen of ground control (where you see the work surface) click on the Z-Axis button located next to the right down 45* arrow
2: Router bits come in different depths, make sure you are properly mounting the router bit to allow for maximum cut depth.

How can I generate GCode? + -

Makercam.com is a good tool to generate GCode. You can watch our MakerCam basics series and Easel for Maslow our YouTube channel.
