Got my Carve King and boy howdy am I impressed and it's not even fully together yet. One unlabeled bag derailed me so far in the process, but I'm getting on with it and the assembly instructional videos.
Sorry the audio goes to crap for a bit.

Congrats and thanks for the video. looks like a lot of parts and a bit intimidating. Think they should offer a building fee option for us "all thumbs" people. Best of luck with it.

It actually seems to have less parts and less going on than the M3.

I'll check out the vid when I get to the shop. The internet speed is terrible at my house. The tad I can see it looks cool.
What bag was unlabeled? I'd like to make sure we don't have a process issue.

The bag with all of the V-Wheel hardware. lol that was one of the bags i had scattered thought the box lol. also had couple screws missing but nothing the box off scrap wouldn't cure and local hard ware. I must say this was the first time i have even looked at one off these machines let alone assemble one off them, and was very impressed with it im glad i got it now. but still have to do test cut and prob few adjustments. But hey Happy so Far well done Derek but i'm sure there will be more questions coming your way lol

Sweet. Did it stall at the top or did it hit the top? If it stalled at the top it probably indicates more motor shafts to screw misalignment than the coupler could compensate for.
