Dear Paul J Kitt, The Inventables site has some excellent videos on assembling an X-Carve. One piece of prep that I did not know up front, one needs to make a super stiff support for the machine - to have any hope that it will deliver the specified performance. I made one from scratch from two sheets of 1/2-in ply with a pseudo honey comb glued and nailed from both sides. The other aspect that requires attention - lubrication. The user manual states the machine comes with sufficient lubrication for about a month of use. I suggest lubricating your machine at the first opportunity. Inventables requires you use their grease. The are sold out of the grease gun. McMaster-Carr sells a recommended replacement. After I cleaned the tracks and lubricated the machine, it works much better. Good luck.
