Who built it for you? Are they available to answer questions one would have if interested?

That's the same Chinese CNC I bought from E bay. That sticker always looks like it's saying "incest" Took a lot of mods to make it useful but it's pretty reliable now.

Mach 3 on it has a couple of very annoying traits my other machines don't and I can't seem to solve them. If you exit mach and come back in it the jog setting defaults to constant even if you had it set to step. This also happens if you use the E stop either the button or the software reset.

And if you use shift/arrow key and release the shift button before the arrow key the axis just marches on until it crashes or you hit he e stop button. I was jogging z down one time and that happened and I shishkebobbed my cue and screwed the butt sleeve all up. Buried the .020 end mill to where I couldn't get the broken bit out of the material.

Neither of these things happen on my other machines running Mach via serial vs USB and a Gecko board.

Here is something that I found online that is supposed to fix the shift jog - I have not tried it yet because I never had that problem
