    Hello,

    I am brand new to the cnc router world. I have been doing alot of research and came across open builds. The c beam machine looks like it checks all the boxes but I have a few questions.

    Does it use lead screws as opposed to belts?

    Also I want to build this machine as I can afford it so I am hoping someone can point me in the direction of a build list for this machine so I can buy the pieces a part at a time and build it as I go along.

    I am overwhelmed by all the information here other forum and I want to take my time and learn the intricacies of it all.

    I am in Canada so I will be using makersparts.ca to buy the components.

    Thank you

    Correct! The C-Beam machine uses leadscrews

    Click the Builds tab above > OpenBuilds Machines > find the C-Beam Machine build
    Under the Build you can find partslists, videos, information a plenty.
