Customer Reviews
Easy to install, easy to use. I already had the lineaire update on the 4040. But in combination with the 16mm ball screw makes it a useful update. Additional length speaks for itself
The installation of the extension was easy, I even upgraded to linear rails at the same time! Easy-peasy. The only issue I encountered was my x-axis was traveling 2.5x further than it should. I reset everything, uninstalled the old machine from Easel, etc. no luck. Ended up finding a video, https://youtu.be/Sr-qvNbFwrs?si=SqD_xHjP3fz4G7e6, thank you paw-paw. That explained how to modify the gcode to make it work properly. I found nothing on the FA site or documentation to show how to assure it’s calibrated properly. My first carve was perfect! All in all, loving the extension! I’ll watch for the 8080 extension kit too!!
