Carbide 3D Shapeoko question

Hello there!

Im looking to purchase Carbide 3D Shapeoko XXL Z-Plus CC Router 65mm.
Im wondering what else I will need to get started. I want to start cutting signs out of wood and acrylic.

If anyone could offer some tips/insight on what I need before I purchase. That would be really helpful :slight_smile:

Hello @Themadqueen,

Welcome to RobotShop community.

The Shapeoko CNC machines come with everything you need to get started.

You can also get the Endmill starter kit from this link:

Are you located in the USA or Canada?.. if not… you will have to order a router separately since the Carbide compact router doesn’t work in the UK and EU.

Let us know if you have further questions.

@Ebram Thank you so much!
