I've had my XL Since about 2016. It took about a day to fully assemble and wire up. I didn't use it much until about 6 months ago due to other commitments. But now that I have retired, this machine is doing a lot of work with 1/2" UHMW stock. Last week I upgraded the XL control to the Black Box control. I give both, the XL machine and the Black Box 5 stars

BUILT AND USED THIS XLARGE C-BEAM FOR TWO YEARS. EXCELLENT FOR BOTH WOOD AND ALUMINIUM. STURDY AND ACCURATE.

Amazing larger machine for routing and milling aluminum. We're running it with a DeWalt 611 at 17000 RPM (min setting) with 0.02" depth of cut and 25 IPM, and it's cutting 6061 beautifully.

It was a pleasure to read your work on the build instructions, that's what I was looking for to inspire from, I would like to start a similar one but a cartesian style, large enough (my hope is 1500x1000 mm) with C-beam for a good enough precision.

I indeed am amazed with the design quality and what the machine is promising!. Very detailed instructions with wonderful renders as well. Nothing can go wrong with these instructions for sure!
