    So I received my C-Beam. Very impressive, organized packaging I might add. Very impressive. —-We’re I’m having trouble is locating a way besides a 2 hour YouTube video and a Google Sketchup rendering. I’m unable to find a straight forward set of step by step illustrated instructions. In Google sketch-up im puzzled. I have seen just an overview picture that’s it. Do you have a PDF or some other way of articulating the building process?

    Thanks David Nelson,

    No other documentation available at this time, but the YouTube video is best as its paces along with your actual build, and you can pause, rewind as you work.

    Thanks for the lightning fast response. Can I page through the sketch up rendering or is just A completed rendering of a fully assembled c-beam.?

    Its a complete model. There are also grabcad models that have been shared by the community that may help as well.

    As Peter mentions the video works really well in walking though the steps of building the machine from start to finish and in the end yields great assembly results.
    So jump in an before you know it you will have the machine up and running!
    Have fun with your build
