Really cool! Any indication (in order of magnitude) how expensive the electronics would be to purchase?

I think, it total, I spend around $1100, but then I also paid for fast shipping. I think you get get that number down quite a lot by being more careful in the sourcing :)

Thanks, that helps!

How’s the rigidity of the z/y axis? I’ve got a bit of an issue on the one I made where the y axis can twist slightly and causes the z axis to be a bit higher / lower depending on if it’s pushing or pulling through a cut.
