Re: New FT-5 Cube style printer.

just take note that the current aluminum 713Make X carriage (extruder mount) is NOT compatible with the CNC add-on.

If the CNC kit becomes popular, then I would expect them to create a new piece that would be compatible, but at this time, it is not.

Re: New FT-5 Cube style printer.

I have been wanting to install aluminum corner brackets for a while. Folger tech seems to be almost always out of stock on them .Mc Master Carr wants something like $11 each for corner brackets and $13 for t brackets. So a couple weeks  agao I picked up some 4 ft lengths of 1/8 x 4" x 4ft aluminum cut it on the chop saw and drilled holes oin it. then I felt like I needed to make a matching control panel .
