I bought a Evolution 4 CNC kit from Bob's CNC Last Thursday. It arrived in two boxes yesterday. Yesterday it was below zero in my shop so I do not tend to start assembling it until the end of March. I am considering purchasing V carve desk top. I saw one of Bob's machines in a professional shop last spring and I asked him about it He said he loved it and became more talkative when I told him I personally knew Bob.
Bob is retired now but at the time he was a machinal engineer at John Deere. He got transferred about 12 years back. I was planning on building my own CNC. I talked to bob at length and decided it would be cheaper to buy from him than to go the way I was planning
A CNC with a 24 x24 work envelop any place else is about 4 grand. Woodsmith did a CNC made out of wood and I was considering doing a lot out of wood so I thought I would save myself a lot of work and give Bob's a try.
Just google Bob's CNC if you would like to see what I got. I have not bought my software yet so I would be interested in hearing from some who use V carve desktop. I know that V carve is upgradable as well as my machine is.
