How long does it take to ship?
We are shipping our kits from the USA, it takes 1 to 5 days to deliver anywhere in the US, or 6-10 days worldwide.
Priority Mail to US (including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands).
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes, EastBaySource warrants its products to be free from defects and malfunctions for a period of one (1) year from the original invoice date.
What else do I need to start cutting?
Our kit comes with everything you need, except for the router, computer, and wooden frame.
The z-axis included in the kit is designed for the Ridgid R22002 router. However, you can find extensive information in the community forums about users successfully using a variety of different routers.
Why are there higher priced kits from different providers?
Price gouging, adding a different z-axis, and rebranding it along the way does not make the kit worth three times more in our opinion.
Our kit is a WELL PROVEN SETUP that WORKS! - The vast majority of Maslow projects you see online were and are still being made with our setup. It has a precision of +/- 0.5mm (0.0196 inches) or better when properly calibrated - It comes with the newest ring version, the most powerful and accurate control board to date, laser-cut ring/carriages for added precision, automated z-axis control, and more...
Do your research before you make an expensive mistake. There is no “official” Maslow cnc provider, we all three vendors share the same rights to manufacture and sell Maslow cnc kits.
Is this a Maslow CNC kit?
Yes, it is. We are an authorized kit MANUFACTURER and parts supplier.
Is this the latest version of the kit?
Yes, our kit comes with the ring system, Z-axis control, upgraded motor gears, latest EBS 2022 shield.
