Can someone direct me to help on building this machine. Have not bought plans yet but would like advice on possible building problems or issues.
thanks

When you buy the plans, you have access to Joe's forum, where you can find a lot of help. Just be aware that the actual plans are not for the evolution, so you have to do some digging around his forum to get all of the Evolution information.

Can you explain some of the differences of the evolution and what would have to be changed about plans. I am afraid that having to change the plans might be too much for me.

I've never built one, and am not all that familiar with it.
I just took a look through his forum.
It looks like the main difference is the side plates and extrusions, and a different Z axis that most members purchase. Maybe rack and pinion was added vs leadscrews?
On his forum, he has a Solidworks E Drawing, and a BOM for all of the parts. Joe also makes and sells the side plates.
It's really not that much different.

Thanks
I will probably just spring for the plans and get into the forum, and go from there.
I had emailed Joe earlier about some questions and have not heard back from him. Maybe soon

Thanks again

I joined Joes forum and would highly recommend it . There's a lot members there that will help you with your questions . There's some great Evo builds there to . I would buy the plates and bearing adjusters from Joe
