Depending on whether or not you purchased the Z-Axis option (and you should have) it’s still not quite perfect. In my case I’m using the Rigid R2202 router and the Z-Axis option for this model makes use of the existing adjustment knob which works good in theory but there’s a lot of slop in it especially when changing direction (going between raise and lower functions).
Maslow is a large (4’x8’) CNC cutting machine designed to let you cut big, useful things out of wood and other flat materials. Cut out a tiny house, a kayak, a tree house, some furniture, or anything else you can imagine. Maslow is designed to be affordable to buy, cheap to ship, easy to use, and powerful.
Here are some things to improve the accuracy and reliability of the Z-Axis significantly.Maslow Router KitSmooth and deburr router body and base. Clean, and wax.
* Disassemble the router body from the base (1). Clean the mating surfaces looking for any parts of metal-on-metal contact that may exist, file over if necessary. It may also benefit from working the mating surfaces with a maroon/red Scotch-Brite pad.
*Apply paste wax to the router body and the housing (1) where there would be metal-on-metal contact. This will help to ensure smooth movement. Instead of paste wax. Instead of paste wax, you may also use UHMW tape 3 lines 120deg from each other down the long axis of the router body. https://www.mcmaster.com/#76445A761
*With the Depth Interlock Lever (6) disengaged from the router body, and the collar handle closed (17) attempt to move the router up and down. If you can not do this while the handle is closed, slightly back out the adjustment screw (20) until it starts to move freely but is not sloppy. Then re-home the router and engage the worm gear latch (6)
*The Maslow CNC is unlike other CNC routers. Capable of cutting sheets of material over two meters long and over a meter wide, it might be the signage and furniture machine of your dreams.
*Maslow is hard to call a machine for home, but it’s a nice option for a garage workshop. This CNC was created for cutting large wood pieces to build furniture, decor, and more. It had started as an open-source project and now sold as a kit for assembling.Fix sloppy Z lead-screw assembly
Few different options here, this is the route I went based on the research and feedback from forum user arnoldcp
*Obtain some suitable sleeve bearings these have a 0.5’ ID and a 0.625’ OD
*Remove the locking tab (8) and using a step drill, enlarge the hole of each side of the Depth Interlock Lever (6) to 0.635’ (5/8’) and about 1/8’ deep on either side. Be sure to leave some material to act as a shoulder for the sleeve bearing.
*Insert the sleeve bearings on either side of the interlock lever, test for fit. Ultimately we will epoxy the sleeve bearings to the interlock lever (6).
*Once satisfied with the fit, and ensuring the locking tab will still work properly, degrease all parts and epoxy the sleeve bearings to the interlock lever. Be sure to remove the locking tab during this operation.
*Install some shim washers (1 worked perfect for me) between the router body and bottom of worm gear shaft (9). This should eliminate any up/down slop. You’ll probably need a couple but it just depends on manufacturing quality at the time. The ID of the washer is 8mm OD probably isn’t all that important but 13mm seems fine. Thickness will vary, which is why I used shim washers. You could also sand or file down a standard washer if you have one the right ID/OD.Add some pre-load to the Z axis
I did this initially but I’m not running it this way currently. However this is something very simple like rubber bands or a bungee cord. Just need some tension on top of the router. I connected mine around the router base. Not pretty but it worked.. I don’t think you want a lot of tension here, just a little.

*BenefitsBobsCNC: E3 CNC Router Kit
This CNC Router comes as a kit for assembly and provides a cutting area of 17.7 x 15.3 x 3.3 in. (450 x 390 x 85 mm). The frame of BobsCNC is made from laser-cut wood, which makes it a little unstable while cutting hard materials. On the bright side, such a frame reduces the cost of a machine, making it one of the popular choices for low-budget workshops.
The E3 CNC router can cut and engrave MDF, wood and some other materials. Mainly, it is a go-to CNC router for woodworking. Users share that without a tool change the router allows cutting about 1.2’ deep into a 3.3’ thick wood or going all the way through a 2.25’ stock. Tool change increases cutting abilities to about 3.3’ thickness.
E3 has an Arduino microprocessor to interpret the G-code file and allows using open-source software to prepare files for machining.
Summary: good starter machine with a fair cost for wood and softer mediums.CNC Piranha Fx
This unusual CNC carving machine had grown from a Kickstarter campaign and now is available to purchase online. Piranha Fx is a modular 3-in-1 tool, which is not only a cutter but also a 3D printer and engraver. It can mill aluminum and wood, cut circuit boards, engrave leather and print 3D models.
The machine uses modular heads to switch from one job to another, which makes it a real space-saver in a workshop. The number of heads you choose influences the price tag, so it is possible to purchase only one or two tools that you specifically need and save a bit of money.
The possible downside of this particular model is the small working area. Its Z-axis is around 3’ height, so by the time you mount a spoil board, material, and bit, you don’t have much of that height left. To overcome this limit, you probably want to check out CNC Piranha XL instead.
Summary: a compact tool for ones who want to try CNC, 3D printing, and laser engraving at once.CNCShop CNC Engraver 3040T
This machine has chrome shafts and with the use of spiral flute bits, it supports engraving more materials, such as metal, stainless steel, MDF board, solid wood, composite board plywood, and stone. Deskscapes serial number.
This router is a good model for carving tasks with a high-speed motor providing quick clear cuts. It fits inside home workshops well and has an emergency button to prevent hazards.
Some disadvantages are that this router requires an active computer connection and at this stage, doesn’t support Mac’s operating system. Some users also have trouble with the original software provided by the manufacturer.
Summary: an affordable router with broad material capabilities that requires some time and skill investment.JFT 3040 CNC Router
JFT Router has 4-axis capabilities and utilizes a z-axis function realization of the automatic tool. It competes to be highly precise by providing 0.03 mm accuracy in tool positioning. JFT 3040 also allows choosing spindle powers of 600 or 1500 W. This CNC Router is used for carving materials like wood, stone, metals - including copper, steel, iron, and aluminum alloy.
Summary: a more advanced machine for carving wood and soft metals.Carbide 3D Shapeoko

There are three cutting area volumes available to choose from, with a 33 x 33 inch maximum. Shapeoko allows cutting aluminum, wood, and plastic.
Summary: a reliable machine with great precision and sturdiness.Pocket NC
This machine is branded as a desktop CNC mill, despite the hefty price tag. This CNC has 5 axes, provides 2,000-10,000 rpm spindle speed, utilizes 5 NEMA 17 Motors and an aluminum frame.
With these features, Pocket NC can be used to create precise wax master models, carve wood, and steel for more complex manufacturing of small scale parts. Compared to other CNC machines on our list, Pocket NC is a more professional-oriented piece.
Summary: a precise and heavy-duty machine with 5 axes for a hefty price.Maslow CNC
Maslow is hard to call a machine for home, but it’s a nice option for a garage workshop. This CNC was created for cutting large wood pieces to build furniture, decor, and more. It had started as an open-source project and now sold as a kit for assembling.
Additionally, a buyer would need some wood pieces, bricks, and a standard wood router. This project is still in beta version, but it makes some tempting promises and demonstrates impressive projects created with it such as wooden chairs and boats.
Summary: interesting DIY CNC for a garage workshop.Carbid 3D Nomad 883 Pro
Nomad 883 Pro is another CNC Router from Carbid 3D. This machine has a full enclosure, aluminum frame, and spindle speed of 2000-10,000 RPM. Nomad also utilizes automatic tool length measuring and custom made spindles. This CNC router can carve 2D and 3D objects out of both wood and wax.
