Re: Wright cnc
They appear to be a pretty new player in the CNC / Plasma machine business. The web site does not say anything about their cnc controls or drive electronics....and almost no info about the mechanics of the machine (belt reduction or direct drive), etc. The height control is a low cost import Proma brand. For the price (lower than most similar size and equipped machines) it seems like a good deal, hopefully the after sale support and parts availability is good! Jim Colt

Re: Wright cnc
Sometimes asking questions on the list before you place an order and spend the money, might bring (more) better advice. We have no idea what your expectations are and what you want to be able to do on your table. Maybe you don't know yourself. Those type of questions are ones that would have been asked to help you better quantify if that is a good match.Any way I just ordered a 5 x 10 wright table

Re: Wright cnc
We have been online all week trying to figure out our issues with our Wright CNC table.
The issue was the crappy electronics. And the table is not precision cut.
It seems nearly impossible to get the table to a true square.
They use the 'elCHEAPO' CHINESE ELECTRONICS off of ebay.

If you have purchased already I would recommend upgrading to the Cand CNC electronics kit.
We got our table from someone that was getting rid of it due to repeatability problems, so we got is for less
than half the price on craigslist. At the time I thought "his loss is my gain". But now I see that we would have
come out better by getting another brand. Because in the end, we lost.
