It does look like a great product and for a professional or someone making money with their machine this would make a great tax write-off but for the poor ond hermit playing with his machine in the...

Bill,
Where do you get your bits? You mention Black and Decker, do you have an online supplier?

Thanks Bill,

I will try changing the microstepping today.

I'm sorry I am new at this. I have a 4aupc CNC package from Hobby CNC. I looked in the box and do not see any numbers on the Power supply. The material list provided says Main power A/C DPST( 4...
