I read Batch 2 is a month behind Batch 1. I think it is at the bottom of the detailed description
$345 to ship the QWC?!? Good grief!
Nope
i am Canadian eh! and I got one 
Admittedly I live in Washington ( no i am not a traitor) Its the land of the cheap beer you just have to put up with some crazy people to get it
As a fellow Washingtonian amen.
Based on what I saw on the early-adopter batch. There is a significant price difference between getting now and the regular price. Thatās just my thinking based on the previous one.
Sorry if my comment seemed rude in any way. Clearly I have lived amongst the Florida crazies for far too long. Cheers!
Iām still on the fence about it. Iāve waited on the sidelines for at least five years and not having a CNC hasnāt killed me yet. At this point it would almost be too hot outside to be in the shop by the time it got here.
What is the advantage or main difference between selecting the 15ā controller and just using your computer? Other than a dedicaded control and quick access? I placed my order and now after watching the YT video of the Gen2 Iām wondering if I shouldāve just saved that money for the laser when it comes back in stock.
Absolutely. Iām in FL and I finally pulled the trigger on installing mini splits in my garage/shop. I was on the fence also until I saw the Gen2 for about half the price of Gen1 and minus the stiffy bar which is another $200. My first CNC so hopefully I can get enough experience with it that it would eventually pay for itself and maybe start a side business 
The experience is significantly better with the HMI Screen computer than without.
Hereās some reasons:
Congrats on your purchase. I just ordered one a few minutes ago for many of the same reasons. Best of luck to you.
