Chosing a CNC Machine
I regularly see the question posed in an XCarve community, of which is better ... XCarve, Shapeko, etc., I personally have no experience away from the XCarve and I would advise caution of asking that question in a specific community. There are community members who own (or have owned) both; if you truly want a comparison, hunt those people out. From what I have read, the Shapeko is a more solid machine, but not as easy to modify as the XCarve; both are similarly priced.
