I bought the 5 Pro 4x4 in October 23 & I can honestly say I have absolutely 0.0 Regrets about that machine. People think $4k is a hefty price to pay for a bench top CNC, but Carbide 3D has done their due diligence with their machines & you actually get a LOT for that $4k price. Kevin & everyone up there at Carbide 3d are super helpful & supportive. Plus not to mention you’re gonna make that $$$$ back (& then some most likely). Truly if I ever get another one it will be another Shapeoko from Carbide 3d!! 💯

I own a Shapeoko 4 Standard (my first machine) and have made several inlaid cutting boards and some inlaid mantle clocks as retirement gifts. I, like yourself, haven't made any money with it yet either lol. I will be upgrading to a Shapeoko 5 Pro 4x2 in the next couple months. Just wanted to say, by your pictures, it looks like you have a pretty good handle on how it all works. Your work looks really good!

One of these machines is definitely on my list. We have two lasers now and the wife wants an embroidery machine next. After that it's a CNC.

Hi David, great video! I'm looking at getting the Shapeoko 4 XL model. I was wondering if you remember approx how long it took for assembly of your machine? Also, do you think building an enclosure is a must? For both dust and sound purposes on this unit?

Mine is not loud at all. I don’t think an enclosure is necessary. Took about 5 hours to build.

Hey David. Hope it going well and just keep doing something each day. I have heard of people using Instagram and Etsy to sell their designs. Even post on Facebook so people know you can make things for them. Is there any other place you sale or promote? I have no machine just yet, but this one is being highly considered.

I love my 4x4 . They don't include the printed manual because it's more efficient to provide it digital so it can be updated immediately.

Is the speed of the VFD spindle controlled by the software/g-code? One of my concerns with using a router is having to manually set the speed using a dial.

Yes it is controlled in the software

You can use any software on the machine. As far as 3d, that's in the software. Carbide Create Pro is probably the easiest software and cheap.

I bought it so long ago, back when I first started in this shop, I don’t remember. It’s about 12’. Sorry I don’t have any more info than that. Pretty sure it came from Amazon though.

Have you cut any marquee letters yet? Would it cut the 4 foot letters?

No, but it will cut them. I mostly have all the letters I need right now

I'm guessing that there is no instruction manual because there are so many video's and customer support that instructions seem a bit redundant...Just my thought.

Hope this helps someone but in short, VFD spindle kit = more power and less noise. Cheers!

In the video, when recording the noise level, it sounded loud. I think this was a recording issue. Why not measure the db level with an app on your phone.
