Would be interesting to see the difference in accuracy between the lead screws of the Nomad versus The Lead 1010 has a well proven track record and a very active community.

I bought the lead cnc to tinker and try and push it beyond some of the limitations of the Shapeoko, but based on my experience thus far the lead cnc has a lot of pitfalls that need fixing before it can be I use the shapeoko for aluminum because I have a threaded table on it that makes workholding easier, I use the 1010 for larger wood projects but I've done wood and aluminum on both. I stumbled onto Openbuilds and was not sure at first but the community offered a ton of info I am a total newbie to CNC machines. The Shapeoko 5 Pro is the natural upgrade from an X-Carve mindset.
