    hmm so it turns out it is cheaper to order the board kit and the motors seperate then it is to buy a cnc kit on hobbycnc

    Kit w/ motors is 280 + 16 shipping and handling
    Kit AND motors (seperate) is 214 + 23 for shipping and handling

    Thats good to know, so hopefully I will be ordering driver and motors, 1/2-10 acme rod, a pair of metal nibblers (different project, but hey, free shipping), and dumpster CNC clamps, couplers, and antiblacklash nuts some point this week. Also most of the other materials I can buy locally, which is just pipe and angle aluminum

    You're incorrect!
    The $280 is for a "PACKAGE" and the $214 is for driver board and steppers ONLY.

    haha seems as I was maybe reading a little too quick. Plus it was pretty late at night when I look at this stuff.

    I knew I made a mistake somewhere, I wouldn't think you would mess up on the pricing like that

    just comign to check in. I am starting to work on my jgro again... I started but had a problem so I had to start over (luckly I had spare mdf to make up for the mistake, but no time). I have a few hours tonight to work on making room to build again, and starting up.

    EDIT:

    So my mistake when I first started was with the base. I accidently glued and nailed the pieces to wrong way. Well... this time around... I managed to do the same thing AGAIN, but only to one corner... luckly I was able to catch it early and fix it.
