Hey Victor, check your FoxAlien link in the description area, it appears only half has linked so you'll be missing out on sales.
🤔. Thanks James! I’ll check that out right away!!!
I have the foxalien vasto. The machine is pretty solid built, but the spindle is not enough for aluminum work
What are you using? The 400w that came with it?
@@TheCrawlspaceCraftsman yes.
Dang, Merry Christmas to you! It's a nice CNC but man, too bad they use proprietary bearings and rails. Would be nice if it were on Linear rails so you could expand it. The one thing I did like about the Mastuer Pro was that I could buy off-the-shelf rails and make it bigger. I think my next CNC will be one I build myself. This 4040 is nice if you never have to do anything very large or want to scale it up down the road.
I plan on doing the upgrade to linear rails and expansion as they become available! It’s a very strong machine though! Can’t wait to do more with it!
I think I may have a faulty machine. I have this exact machine and use my son’s Easel Pro account but cannot get it to set up and cut. Would you possibly do a video of connecting it to the laptop and show every step you take to get Homing done and then using the z-probe then setting an example file and doing the first cut. You were off camera during this and I could not see the buttons being pushed on your laptop. Also maybe try UGS Universal G-Code Sender and set it up. When homing does Z go up to the top Should X be reversed etc… I have broken 5 bits 2 when starting a cut because it homes itself first for some reason.
Sorry you’re having issues. Please join on Facebook “FoxAlien CNC Router & Laser Machine Group”. You can get a lot of help there as well as post videos of issues and successes!
At 12;37 you say that you are going to hook it up to Easel then skip to it already being hooked up. I need that part explained. Also at 13:43 you home the machine and set the z probe up but don’t show how that is z probe is done. After you move the machine to the front left corner and do the z probe setting it. Please show setting the X Y Axis to tell the machine where the corner of the work area is.
I can try to do a “basics” video if that will help out!!!
Thanks for this video.
However I think that exposed Y rails would be cover by debris disturbing a smooth travel that is not good for finish. I hope I am wrong.
I just have a small 1419 for milling PCBs. I am looking for a 4040 CNC like FoxAlien 4040XE or Genmitsu. Now seen yt CNC reveiws videos
They are covered and I highly recommend to clean them after each cut especially if you don’t have a dust collector! It will take a really bad compacted Y axis to really mess things up.
What would you say are the main benefits of this 4040xe vs the masuter pro? And do you think this is a better choice for first time cnc owners who will primarily be working with hardwoods ?
For hardwoods the XE Pro is a better way to go! The Linear rails will have way less flex then belts! With belts ….. missed steps are common. Spend the money now and you’ll be happier later!
@@TheCrawlspaceCraftsman Thank you for sharing? Which do you think you would you pick between the 4040xe and the nymolabs cnc you featured ?
Can you get an extension kit for this cnc
As if this moment it’s not available yet. I do believe it’s in the works!!! Stay tuned!
Does the z probe come with this cnc
Absolutely !!!
thanks for the review but the music is way too loud compared to your voice? It's not pleasant to juggle many times the volume button.
Thank yin and thanks for the feedback. I’m editing I try to lower the volume but sometimes “evidently” it’s not low enough.
Wood?
Yes. Wood.
@@TheCrawlspaceCraftsman it was sarcastic. The cheapest cnc around can do wood.
@@CliffordStaley as was my response. 😂
@@TheCrawlspaceCraftsman can’t wait for the metal brake and aluminum foil segment
🤣🤣🤣
Ass description
Thanks for your kind words!!
Hi, excellent video, can I ask what SW you use for machine paths and to generate the GCOD, for XE PRO?
I don’t get too crazy with software but i really love Easel by Inventibles! I’m gong to start doing some mid week videos on the program!
Thank you fof sharing i cant wait to start
do these machines come with all the software im looking at getting into it but kinda want a machine thats comes with its own software so i can learn faster thank you
Hey bud! So they don’t come with propriety software. If you’re a beginner i do recommend using Easel or Easel Pro ($24 a month) to learn on. You can design and send g-code directly to the machine! There are others too but honestly Easel is great and super easy! I mainly use Easel myself! Message me if you have any other questions!
@@TheCrawlspaceCraftsman thanks for the response il lthrow you a msg thank you
Always great professional content. Keeps me informed and on the edge or my seat!
Fantastic! Appreciate you tuning in!
Hi. It comes stock with all the three router mounting or did you order them separately ?
Comes with them! No need to order them separately! 😃
@@TheCrawlspaceCraftsman Thanks a lot
Dang what a nice machine!
It really is! Thanks!!
Great video and would absolutely LOVE more content on this machine!
Don’t you worry! I plan on a lot more! I have so many planned videos in ‘24 it should be awesome! A lot of project vids too! Thanks for watching!
